Living in Paradise: Couple more cards...

Well, I really meant to finish and post these earlier this week, but alas they had to wait until Saturday to get their finishing touches and to be shared with the world! Here they are...

The above card is the other puppy birthday card for Malie's sister (Bella) and brother (KJ). IRL these two dogs look very similar although the female is about 10 pounds heavier than the male! So that's why I made one larger than the other! This is another Bugaboo image that I modified a bit (tilted the heads). Here's the other challenges I was inspired by for this one:
1. allsorts challenge blog - free and easy
2. Craft your passion challenges - anything goes
3. Karens Doodles Challenge Blog - more than one image
4. Penny's Paper-Crafty Challenge - happy birthday
5. Stamptacular Sunday Challenge - seeing double
6. Sweet Stampin Challenge Blog - cute and cuddly
7. Wags ‘n Whiskers - birthdays

My next card is for my cousin who just had her second baby boy last Saturday. I kept it pretty simple (i.e., no bulky embellishments) so I could easily mail it!

Here's the other challenges I was inspired by for this one:
1. Aud Sentiments Challenge Blog - sentiments with at least 2 words
2. Kaboodle Doodles Challenge - celebration
3. Lexi's Creations - a bugs life
4. Lollipop Crafts - anything goes
5. Mojo Monday - The Blog - sketch
6. Stamp Something - bugs and/or butterflies somethings

Thanks for stopping by!
Aloha,
