Walk in the Garden!

 

Hi there bloggers!! I have a fun card for you today featuring Flower Bonnet Sophie and Spring Flowers Riley. They are taking a walk in their flower garden and picking some flowers.

This week  I am the challenge hostess, and I challenge you to create a card featuring Riley and Sophie on the same card.

It’s that time---- Riley Release Day!!

Welcome to the Riley and Company Online blog hop. Have you been enjoying the hop so far? What do you think about all the cute images? I LOVE what I am about to share with you!  I have a project and a card to share!

 

First I will share my castle with you. I used the Cricut cartridge, Once Upon a Princess, and cut out all the pieces and assembled them with the assistance of my 4 year old daughter!

It was quite the task I must say, however now she has a cute little castle that she can play with using her finger puppet King Riley and Princess Sophie!

Here are the duo:

Here they are as finger puppets:

Below shows the back of the puppets. I just cut out a circle and roller it. With tiny fingers I am sure this will fit better!

My next card is much more simple and it features Star Riley!

That is all from me today. Next on the hop is : Joy Stagg, a very talented stamper, with her own unique style and a personal good friend of mine.

Challenge Time with Cornish Heritage Farms

We are holding our first challenge at the Cornish Heritage Farms Blog. These challenges will be held every two weeks and feel free to play along just for the fun of it.

This week’s challenge, provided by Frances is ANYTHING GOES. How easy is that for a first challenge?

Since there were no restrictions I decided to decorate a glassine bag. I didn’t want to make a card, instead I wanted to see if I could alter something around my craft studio!

I found my stack of glassine bags and though it would be perfect. I stamped the image with a shimmery ink, and topped it off with a doily, button and twine.

This bag would be perfect to hold a card, and invitation or even some goodies for a birthday party, bridal shower etc. Especially this image, the Peacock Toile  Backgrounder, is beautiful for a wedding, or bridal shower theme, among many others.

Be sure to play along with us, and check out the other Design Team Member’s blogs. The list is located on the right side bar. I’m sure they will have plenty to inspire you!
