Ann who is such an amazing scrapper has a cool blog called Crossroad Sketches. Each month she creates a beautiful sketch challenge for all to try... you have to check it out! Here is my take on her April sketch. I love how I was able to use it on a 8.5 x 11 page since that is the size that I scrap. Thanks Ann for helping me create such a wonderful page!
This months challenge called Spring has Sprung at Scrap it Forward is to send packets of seeds for an organization called Boys Hope Girls Hope. This organization helps youth who are at risk and provides them with positive learning/growth opportunities who otherwise may not have the chance to do so.
The 2nd challenge is to make a spring themed layout using Cosmo Cricket paper. The Cosmo Cricket paper that I used is from the Storytime Collection. I love the rustic feel this paper gives.
Look what Karen sent me, I was her swap partner for our May Basket Swap at MMFY. I'm so excited, I always love new loot! Thank you so much Karen!
Today's challenge at 365 cards is to make a tri-fold card. I make this one with my friend Susan. I love the pinks and browns. The paper used is a SU retired paper called Berry Bliss. It was one of my favorites.

This is my card for the Pink Elephant challenge to Stamp which are my leaves from SU, "A Rose is a Rose" stamp set, emboss which are my flowers from a SU embossing folder called, "Manhattan Flower" and punch which are my butterflies from Martha Stewart's butterfly punch.

I'm so excited, 365 Cards is hosting Scor-it challenges all week long. Every day the DT will post a new challenge along with a tutorial. Life can't get any better then that! Today's challenge #43 is to make a gift card holder. I got this idea from my up line, it will be perfect for my Mother on Mother's Day! The stamp set used is Stampin' Up!'s Little Flowers.
I got this cute little purse idea from my friend Susan. I filled it with tea for my mother. I think that it came out cute. It was created for Belli's #62 challenge called Cello Bags. Our task was to create a project using a cello bag. The cute strawberry stamp is from a Stampin' Up!'s set called Tart and Tangy.
This is the card that I made this morning for #41 challenge at 365 Cards. The challenge was to make a get well card and use 5 flowers. I thought this Stampin' Up! flowering tree from the Season of Friendship set made a cute spring get well card for my son since his allergies are kicking his butt right now. Be sure to check out their blog next week for scor-it week. I can't wait to see what they have in store for all of us.
This is my card for the 365 Cards challenge. The challenge for today is to make a sunny summer card. I thought that this board short card would be perfect for this challenge.
Quilting is today's challenge at 365 Cards. I love how this card came together so easy. I used a retired Stampin' Up! card element kit called Simply Sent and white embroidery floss for the center knots.
