Flying by to Say Hi

A card for my son who LOVES to play Angry Birds.

We get through many wrestling tournaments 

with him playing Angry Birds between matches.

No pictures from this past weekend, he came in fourth

out of four after injuring his shoulder in his second match.

It is the "game" challenge at CASology

and the "Make Your Mark" challenge at CAS-ual Fridays.

The marking is quite small ~ it is the black in the eyes.

This week it is "anything goes"  at Simon Says Stamp.

 The angry bird and sling shot are made from various punches,

most of them are retired, only the first three listed are current.

Thinking of You

I love purple, so I had to play along with the color

challenge at Color Throwdown.  The long panel has

Old Olive as its background, so I substituted that in place

of the Garden Green, since they offered us the option not

to use the exact colors.  I used the sketch at CAS(E) this Sketch.

I paper pieced the flowers, so I will also enter it at Simon Says Stamp.

This is my second entry at Simon Says Stamp, the first one is my previous post.

Grab Life by the Beans

We are in the middle of winter storm Luna.

My son and I shoveled the driveway,

 and by the time we finished we could have started over again :~(.

No point in fighting a losing battle, must mean it's time to stamp :-).

I made a very CAS card for three challenges ~ 

sketch at Less is More,

theme at CASology ~ "Drink," and

technique of paper piecing at Simon Says Stamp.

The coffee cup and "coffee" in the cup are paper pieced.

The beans are fussy cut.

Paper: PTI Rustic White & Aqua Mist, SU Soft Suede, Authentique 6 X 6 Bundle - Gathering

Ink:  SU Soft Suede
