PDCC42 and Etsy Inspired 101 combined challenge

This is the second week I have combined these two challenges together. It seems to double my inspiration. So thank you to both Play Date Cafe and Etsy Inpired Blogs for hosting these super fun challenges.

My Card:


The Play Date Cafe Challenge this week is this great color scheme. (Love the photo too, but who need THAT many camels?)


For Etsy Inspired the inspiration is this adorable shop called Lover Dovers. I love the retro deer in the christmas apron. The Snow White inspired apron reminded me of Snow White in the woods with all the woodland creatures...



Speaking of Christmas.... I am having a summer clearance in MY Etsy shop to clear out some of my Christmas stock. Please take a look!


Check out all the other great entries on both blogs. Thanks for looking, your comments are always welcome!

CAS - tastic and PDCC 41 Combined Challenge

Before I get into the challenge I am hosting my first GIVEAWAY on my blog! Not many people have entered so you still have a great chance to win. The prize is a card package from my Etsy shop.

Now on to the challenge:
Since I am all about foxes right now, I had to use a fox for this card. I combined two challenges this time. I very excited about both.

For the CAS-tastic challenge (see their super cute blog HERE). They had 4 cards for inspiration (so hard to choose!). I chose this one by their design team member Maylee, she the inspiration card HERE.


For The Play Date Cafe Challenge (see their awesome blog HERE) the challenge is to use this great color palette.



So here is my card!!


Thanks for peeking!

Preppy Card Challenge #9 and #10 - 10 cards in 10 weeks

This is my last installment of my Preppy Challenge 10 cards in 10 weeks. My friend Elle is wrapping up her What Preppy Wore Challenge too. Click HERE to see the latest installment. The end of these challenges mean that Elle is moving away =(

I will show cards #9 and #10 and then a recap of the entire challenge. Basically Elle picked an inspiration piece for me from the world of fashion weekly.

I would be super thrilled if you leave a comment and let me know which ones are your favs. My fav is the "preppy on the green" card #3, I also really like #7.

Thanks for checking it out! Elle I am going to super miss you!!
