So exciting

-
This is my very 1st blog ;0  Hope I do it ok... I've been looking on the net for products and inspiration for a long time.  Now I want to try to inspire others (maybe one day) and have fun in the process.  I discovered challenges  YAY so I will participate in them.  Here's my 1st card for the night:
If I understand the blogging world... you try to describe what you used to make the card.  So in this case it was American Craft Happy B-Day paper that was 2 sided.  I also used a cereal box cardboard ;)  for the square in the back and I used distress ink to age it up. The stamp is from the set Canine Capers 2 - Kraftin Kimmie and the sentiment from Hero Art.  I also used the sketch following to make it (that really does help creativity).

So I'm entering this little card in the following challenges:
  1. Love to create challenge - one for the boys and the sketch
  2. Dutchdare-cardchallenges - cute and cuddly (i think this little doggy qualify don't you?)
  3. Kraftinkimmiestamps - go green (recycled the cereal box! hihihi... I actually quite like the result... so I might do this again!  And it's cheap!!!!  YAY)
  4. Cards for men - outdoor
  5. Crafting when we can challenges - one for the boys
So I hope I did this right... please leave comments and be gentle   lol

Will be back soon with my 2nd post!
