I cut out the 2 3/4" circle from white card stock with the MS circle cutter.  Printed the image (with the circle around the image) on plain white paper.  Then I adhered the circle over the image and ran the sheet through the printer again.

I popped up the image on homemade pink foam squares.  I added a smaller image and more DP on the inside.

This was a fun card to make.  It was different making a square card. (4 1/4 x 4 1/4).  I hope you can play along.

Apples and Lace

 Can you believe October is more than half over? Only 2 weeks until Halloween. Do you get dressed up?  I always have big ideas but never follow through and just sit and pass out candy. hahaha
Back to the card.  This time it's for a pair of challenges being sponsored by Sassy Studio Designs. The challenges are 4 Krafty Girlz Challenges (#4 Anything Goes) and Charisma Cardz Challenges (#41 Food).
  
Here is my card.

A Sweetie for Halloween

There was a mix up with the sponsorships and some got to see this a little early (Shhhhhh!)  So this is my second card for Artistic Inspirations Challenge's "Anything Goes".  Being that Sassy Studio Designs is the sponsor and I am a member of the SSD DT, I created this card.  Being that it was a "Halloween Colors" theme, I wanted something a little different.  So after looking through the Sassy Studio Designs images, I found the this image.  And it's not the witch or mummy or even the vampire slayer.  What do you think?

PINK-spirational

I haven't played along in awhile at {Pin}spirational Challenges.  But I thought I'd join in this week. This week's "inspiration" pic is "Pink ribbon" themed.

So I knew my card had to have a pink theme.  And I used sketch #17 from Freshly Made Sketches.

Here's my take.
