Humpty Dumpty Get Well card

Hi, I am on the design team at SNB (Stretch n' Bubbles) Blog and this week i've decided to use Humpty Dumpty.  He is really a fun and detailed image.

What i did:
The printed background is embossed w/the lattice folder.  I tried to make the Humpty dumpty look distressed/vintage by using distressed ink and then slightly sprinkling it with water and wading the paper up...then i ironed it with my iron...and i found that the paper got thicker...isn't that odd?  The sentiment is from Lyrical letters cartridge.

Challenges:
Charisma Cardz Challenge #36- Inspired by a song (My song is Humpty Dumpty)

Just for You- Timeless Vintage

All you need is a friend w/chocolate card

Yes, i saw this cute, cute image at Mo's Digital Pencil and thought,  "oh, this saying would be so cute with this image".  The image is called Chocolate Smile and i am using it for the current Sketch Challenge at Mo's Challenge Blog.  The sentiment is from Inkadinkado.

What i did:

I used my cricut to cut out a small envelope/pocket and adhered it to the card base.  I also made the scalloped circle using Elegant Edges cart.  I then colored and cut out the cute image.  Added a bit of floral embellishments and the sentiment to make a really fun card for my special friend!

Challenges:

Interactive Get Well card

The WOW challenge at TGF Farm Fresh Challenge blog is a sketch.  I used Summer from the Wild Sprout Collection.

The sketch:

What i did:
I chose to make the card into an interactive card by making the card a bed w/a flap that opens up.  The flap is the "blanket" and the little girl paper doll is removable, the card has a little "strip of paper" that holds her in place.  I also backed the little girl to cover up the copic marker's bleeding through and to give the little girl some stability.

Eliza Doolittle from Pygmalion

Tiddly Inks the challenge #63 is to make a reading inspired project.  I chose to use the "Priscilla" image from the Steampunk collection and this week's freebie, the "open book". 
The reason for choosing to make this project based on this book is because my Son-in Law is an 8th grade English teacher and he teaches this book during the year.  I had not known that the movie, "My Fair Lady" is based on that book.

What i did:
I searched the internet for a quote about Eliza and printed off the quote and attached that to the open book.  i altered the dress of Priscilla/Eliza slightly to have that black and white look from the dress in the movie.  So then i decided it would be nice to actually have a book/easel card...so i made this one up., by adding a bit more to the end of the card so i could fold it into a book. I also used my cricut to cut out the title and flourish. But no, could i stop there...i had to make some pages for the inside of the book and line the inside cover. LOL 

Challenges:
Paper Creator's Crafts- Easel Card

The Moon and the "mouse" Card

This card for SNB (Stretch n' Bubbles) was a bit tricky.  I used the "The moon" here , but i also cropped the mouse out of The window bat image which is found here.  I also reversed the mouse/window image in Photoshop so that he would we be in the same direction as the moon.
I LOVE this little mouse...he is so darn cute!!

Don't be disappointed, you will see this entire image later this month...in time for a Halloween treat. :)

What i did:
I printed the moon on yellow cardstock and cut it out.  Then i used my embossing folders to get 4 different looks, swirly, handwritten note, canvas and clouds.  I distressed the moon and on some of the embossed moons i colored the raised parts with a white opaque pen.  Then i took the window image and reversed it in Photoshop and then i cropped out just the mouse and enlarged him to fit the size of my moon.  I colored and cut the mouse out and set him on the moon. I added some buttons and sparkly gems to look like stars.  A bit of baker's twine and tada..my card to share with you!  I've left an area for a sentiment as well.  I was thinking, Sweet Dreams or Hoping all your dreams come true, Dreams do come true...Maybe you have some other suggestions?

Challenges:
The Emerald Faerie Garden- Buttons
DYSU Challenge Blog- Friendly Critters
Rainbow Lady's Challenge Blog- Let's emboss it
Fab 'n' Funky Challenges- Go mad with embossing

New Freebie at Digi My World...the letter "H" is available on Friday!

 I made this card using the freebie available this week Friday, September 2 at Digi My World.  I used the clip art but it is also available as a digital stamp.  I've also used the card sketch at CPS- Card Sketches.  This image would also be really cute for a Cookout invitation.  

Sadie is a Big Sister

My daughter will be journaling, but here is the deal.  Sadie (my granddaughter) is looking at my phone to see the picture of her brother for the first time while we are in the waiting room, the picture she is seeing is the tiny picture you see above her picture.  To the left is Sadie getting her "big sister" t-shirt (i made this one using my cricut to cut out the letters)
here is the sketch i used from A to Z Scraplets blog:

And here is the LO i made using the LO
