Time to relax!

I was inspired by Giesle's card to make a one layer male card for the Pals Paper Arts challenge (male and K.I.S.S). And since Susan took the week off from her one layer challenge this week I thought I'd branch out and enter this in Ted's Happily Ever Crafter and Stamp Simply's one layer challenges.

Materials: PTI kraft, PTI On the Couch stamp and sentiment, Stampin Up black ink, corner rounder punch

Can You Touch the Moon #5

This is my 5th card... I think I'll send this one to Anya. (See the first post for details). I used the Pals Paper Arts colors.

Materials: Paper Source rocket ship stamp, Stampin Up black ink, Stampin Up circle punch, shiny brown paper from Vanda, yellow card stock from stash, grey art paper from stash, sentiment written with Chalkduster font on Word

Can You Touch the Moon #4

This is my fourth card using the Pals Paper Arts colors for Jennifer McQuire's Cards for Kids. I'll enter it in Mark's Finest Papers Speedy Cat challenge because I used the circle punch.

Materials: Paper Source rocket ship stamp, Stampin Up black ink, Stampin Up circle punch, Stampin Up Chocolate Chip card stock, yellow and grey card stock from stash, sentiment written with Chalkduster font on Word

Can You Touch the Moon #3

This is my third card using the Pals Paper Arts colors for Jennifer McQuire's Cards for Kids.

Materials: Paper Source rocket ship stamp, Stampin Up Black ink, Stampin Up Circle Punch (to remove the corners), Stampin Up chocolate chip card stock, yellow and grey card stock from stash, sentiment written with Chalkduster font on Word and cut into pieces

Can You Touch the Moon #2

This is the second card I made, using the Pals Paper Arts color for Jennifer McGuire's Cards for Kids. I had originally thought I'd orientate it like the photo on top, but when I took the photo I turned it, I think it works well either way.

Materials: Paper Source rocket ship stamp, Stampin Up Black ink, Stampin Up chocolate chip card stock, yellow and grey card stock from stash, sentiment written with Chalkduster font on Word and cut into pieces, Fiskars rotary scallop cutter

Can You Touch the Moon #1

I have been meaning to make some cards for Jennifer McGuire's Cards for Kids for months. I first found her website when I was surfing card websites and I thought it was a great project (not to mention some amazing prizes). My motivation to make some cards was partly motivated by the Pals Paper Arts color challenge (I thought they would be good boy colors) and the recent blog update by my friend Liz, who's daughter is currently having chemo for retinoblastoma. So I finally sat down and made 5 cards. I'll send one to Anya and the other four to Jennifer's Cards for Kids. Of course being me, I didn't make 5 of the same cards- why would I do something that simple? Mark's Finest Papers Speedy Cat challenge this week is to use punches, and I made some comment on their blog about helping boost their numbers. So, here's another entry.

Materials: Paper Source rocket ship stamp, Stampin Up Black ink, Stampin Up Circle Punch, Stampin Up chocolate chip card stock, yellow and grey card stock from stash, sentiment written with Chalkduster font on Word and cut into pieces
