Birthday Present 4 U

This month (actually August) Sassy Studio Designs is one of the sponsors for the challenge at Crafting by Designs. The challenge is "Anything Goes".  I had this image sitting on my desk in a pile of images.  I thought, let's use it and make a Birthday card. I also got the DP pack a couple weeks earlier at a Stamp & Scrap Show and wanted to use some of the papers.
Here's what I created.

Cowgirl Birthday

Howdy Partners! This week's challenge (#72) at Crafter's Cafe Blog Challenge is sponsored by Sassy Studio Designs. The theme this week is "Birthday".  I found a card I made at a booth's "Make & Take" at a StampScrapArtsTour show.

I liked the use of the vellum to make the glass.  So I thought I wanted to incorporate it into my project.  Here's what I created.

Grad Slider

This week Sassy Studio Designs is sponsoring the weekly challenge at Artistic Inspirations Challenges (#100, that's right 100! ).  This week's theme is "Anything Goes". I thought with this being "Graduation" time of the year, I'd make a Graduation card.  I also decided to make it a "Double Slider" card.  I don't remember where I first saw how to make this type of card, but I've made a few of them in the past.
