Yes, I make cards even when there isn't a challenge or a sketch to follow. :) Well, technically, there were a few sketches but I just didn't get these cards made in time :/
First there is a birthday card I made for my cousin to give out.
Second, here are two baby cards I made,
I love the playful simplicity of this one. :)
This one seems like its missing something, but I don't know what else to put on it. I'm not sure if I like it or not. :/

Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge #37
Here is my card for the Waltzingmouse Sketch Challenge #37
As soon as I saw the sketch I knew I wanted to try this pyramid card. I don't think it's too shabby for my first time. :) The yellow flower is handmade very simply. Just fold a ribbon in half, stitch it together, and pull the ends together to scrunch it. Easy-peasy.

"Easter" Card
Well, as promised, here is the first of many posts this morning. This is a card I made for the Vive La Verve March Challenge on the Splitcoaststampers forum.
First off, here's the sketch:
And here's my card:
The ribbon flower is handmade and I got the idea off of this blog. Thanks Jenni! The stamps are all new Inkadinkado stamps. The scalloped edge is curtesy of my new punch! :) So excited to use it more.
I am also entering this card in the Shabby Tea Room Week #52 Challenge (I know it's not an Irish card but it has a bit of green) as well as the Crafters Companion Monthly Challenge #10.

New Cards Coming Soon!!
I am very annoyed with myself for not posting regularly like I should. I do have some new cards to share; I just need to remember to take them off my camera and put them on the computer. I have recently invested in a Cuttlebug and a scalloped edge puncher. The Cuttlebug is a dream come true, but the paper puncher not so much :/ I think I just need to get the hang of it. I'll try to post again tomorrow with at least some of my newest stuff. Thanks for sticking around!
