Free Friday Snail

Friday April 27, 2012

Happy Friday.. and it's Free Friday at Catch the bug http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/ This digi is Snail.. I thought it would be great for a belated birthday.. slow snail - belated... get it??

I had to put her in a garden and the background papers added to the whole look too. Don't you just love papers.. I am such a hoarder of papers.. I wish I knew at the time I was buying them to limit the 12x12 and focus on 6x6 and 8x8.. but I am not sorry I have the larger pads.. I just love the use of the smaller sizes for the cards..

Animal Antics -creative craft/catch the bug

Tuesday April 24, 2012

Ok it feels great to have the old blog postings back to normal. (THANKS Steph). At least I think so. I need to figure a few things like why comments come and I need to go into a new system to moderate? but that is minor so I am not worried. I can still post comments to my cards and thank you everyone who comments on my cards. I appreciate all the kind encouraging words.

Now for today's post. This is a challenge at Creative Craft (every other Tuesday) and the theme is Animal Antics.. http://creativecraftchallenges2.blogspot.com/ being sponsored by Catch the bug http://catchthebugblog.blogspot.com/ I chose to use the Bunny's from catch the bug. This card makes me laugh and I thought the sentiment was perfect for the card.
