Merci

Used a couple challenge prompts to make a card this weekend.

Design from CAS(E) this sketch, colors from the 10 minute craft dash 
and papers inspired by BG challenge. 

This card took 10:18. I went over b/c I cut the arrow in a blue paper first and it didn't pop enough so I re-cut in the dark pink BG paper from the pad. Definitely a good move.

Card features a Purple Onion thank you stamp (Thanks AMY) and 

papers by Basic Grey and MME.

Supplies:

Stamp: Purple Onion

Ink:  Distress in Broken China

Papers:  Basic Grey "Kissing Booth" and MME

Other:  arrow die "Lead the Way" set by MFT

Last card for the Card drive for Grayson.

I made all these in one sitting.  
I am taking a graduate class on literacy and while it is really educational, my craft time is very limited almost nonexistent until the end of April.
 I walked in my craft room the other day just to see it.
I miss my toys!!

Spaceship was paper pieced and popped with foam:

Robot card for Grayson

 Here's a card heading for the Happy Mail for Grayson Drive.

The card features papers from the MME "Lil' Robots" collection and stamps by Recollection (scored them for $1.50 at Michael's clearance sale)

The sentiment is by Simon Says Stamp's "You" set.

The little green banner is made with MFT "mini pennants" die.

Used a bit of Glossy Accents, Stickles and Shiny black fabric paint to jazz it up.
Inspired by the sketch, I added the punched-out heart.

I used the sketch from CAS(E) this Sketch #13.
