Fun in the rain


 
   This month's Send A Smile 4 Kids challenge has the theme of cute autumn or Halloween cards. I have chosen the autumn theme and decoupaged an image from Hunkydory's Little Book of Autumn.

Have a ball


 
The theme for August's Send A Smile 4 Kids challenge is a nice easy one of anything goes.
I have used pieces from a Hunkydory kit along with a rosette made from a die cut.

Bauble

 


   The July challenge at Send A Smile 4 Kids has the theme of Christmas in July.

    It seems very strange making a Christmas card when an extreme heat warning is in effect! 

    The background paper, with computer generated "Happy Christmas", was printed from Tattered Lace's Festive Pines CD Rom and matted onto pale blue card. I used a Tattered Lace die called Glisten in the Snow, removed the centre of the bauble and then coloured the diecut using Promarkers, adding red Liquid Pearls to the holly berries. The centre of the bauble was replaced with gold mirri card and to this I attached the small decoupaged image from a Morehead's Christmas pack.

Summer fun



  
    This month's theme for the Send A Smile 4 Kids challenge is summer fun cards.
    This card was made using several stamps from Hunkydory's Acorn Wood collection and Brush Markers. The design was matted and layered onto blue and white cards and then framed with pink card.
