Cards for Soldiers!!

I've been working on
Cards For Soldiers!!
It's been fun and challenging!!
I love to use embellishments on my cards,
but can't on these so they
look a bit plain to me!!
I was, however, able to do some challenges
with my cards. Here are a few:

The image is from far far hill.

Spoonful of Sugar-white + one.

Images are from far far hill.

Getting back to it!!

Challenges that is.
It's been a while since I checked
my challenge threads everyday!!
So today I thought I'd go
through them and see what was up.
Here are a few that I decided to do!!

Of course my most favorite has to be first!!
Amazing message posted there again this week!!
Please stop by and read it!!
We are to use solid color paper and build on that.
So....I started with a plain white card.
Embossed it in my sizzix embosser.
Then I used tiger lily orange and
sunshine yellow glimmer mists to create
the front of the card.
I used an image from Far Far Hill.
I made the pansy, by starting with white paper,
and using watercolors to color it
before putting it together.

Because I love butterflies,
is also a favorite of mine.
This is also for Dutch Dare-a card for mom.
Paper is Paper Studio, Kaisercraft and Bazzill.
The image is from Far Far Hill.
Butterflies are a Fiskers punch.

For Paper Cupcakes-birthday.
Paper is K&Company.
Border punch is Martha Stewart.

And lastly,
I Did It-Mother's Day.
Paper is paper company and DCWV.
Image is from Far Far Hill.

These cards look a little plain,
but that is because they are for
the soldiers and can't be lumpy.

Thanks so much for stopping by!!

Until next time............tootles!!
