8th Anniversary

 

Happy Wednesday, everybody!

 A new challenge is starting at Double D Challenges.

 8th Birthday/Anniversary
8th anniversary is Bronze (just a suggestion)
Doesn't have to be Bronze, just anything birthday

Here is their design board:

 

I found some bronze colored glitter paper in my stash,

 so I went with a very clean and simple Anniversary card.

Congratulations to my two favorite people... Diane and Darlene. 

To make this card I used  a really old heart punch and the words were printed on the computer.

Winter

Hi! 

  This week there is a new challenge over at Double D Challenges.

The challenge theme is "Winter/ snow scene".

Here's the mood board for inspiration:

 

I was looking through my patterned paper stash and I came upon this paper from Basic Grey that reminded me of those winter days were it's just grey and cloudy and dreary...so that's what I went with.

I did splatter a little white ..but yeah, looking at this just makes me cold. I guess that works for winter! lol

Thanks for stopping by and if you join us at Double D Challenges. you could win this prize: 

 

Hugs, Doni
