I was excited that I actually found some time to complete a card for Karen's Doodles Challenge #28. The challenge was to create a Criss Cross card. I used Karen's "Flowers for Mum" image.

Karen's Doodles Kids Challenge #2
My children were so excited when I told them there was a card challenge for kids. Matthew is 6 years old and Lauren is 3. I showed them how to read the sketch and then they both sat down and worked until their card was complete.
They were proud of their finished cards and decided to pose as 'card people'.

"Howdy"
I'm excited to be participating in my first card challenge. The challenge, "Fancy Folds", was to create a card that was something other than just a plain rectangle or square using a Karen's Doodles digital stamp. The stamp I chose is called "Rootin' Tootin' Cowboy". If you love digital stamps, go check out her blog, Karen's Doodles. I love every single one of her stamps. I can guarantee you won't be able to leave without purchasing at least one. The card style I chose is called "Joy Fold". A tutorial can be found over at Splitcoast Stampers.
I am pleased with the finished result, however, it is completely different from my original plan. After I finished coloring the lil' cowboy I stepped away from the table only to return and find my finished image in the hands of my 3 year old daughter, Lauren, who was also holding my paper cutter. And yes, she had already used it! Luckily, I was able still able to use the lil' guy, by cutting him out completely. Whew!
