The Lawn Ranger

Hi Friends!
I hope your Thursday is off to a great start!

I've got another fun card for you using this week's Deconstructed Sketch #125!

You might be wondering why I chose to post this card on Halloween. Well, it's because this is the day that cards are due for the SOTC swap that I'm in and our hostess this month, Barb, chose for us to create Birthday cards with Humor. And this is my offering!
I've used a stamp from Art Impressions that I thought would make a great guy card! Thanks to Barb for getting this funny guy inked up finally!

 I hope you'll play along with us at the Deconstructed Sketch! Be sure to check out the fabulous creations of the other Deconstructed Sketch Girls!

See you back here next week for Sketch 126 and Happy Halloween!

Just Because

Hi Friends!
Happy Friday to you!

I can't believe it's already mid October! The days are just flying by and seemingly filled to the brim with "to do's" in my neck of the woods.

And I'm a day late, but here is my card for the Unidentified (mystery image) Swap that I'm in. This month our hostess was LJ and she chose for us to work this this adorable Penny Black stamp. This stamp just makes me smile!
I found these fun DCWV papers in my stash and paired it with a few tiny brads, American Crafts ribbon and sentiment from PTI.

Thanks for stopping by today! I'll see you back here tomorrow for challenge #200 over at Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps!

A Fairy Happy Birthday
