Not a Princess-y Birthday

Princess A turned 17 yesterday! I cannot believe how quickly time goes by. Seems like just last year she was having her Sweet Sixteen...

I was thinking about past cards and realized that most years, her cards are purple, and the past several years the theme has been something in the fairy tale realm (princesses, dragons, wizards, etc). 
Even though she has been telling me for weeks that soon she will be allowed to do magic outside of Hogwarts, this year there is nothing magical about her card.

Well, except for the fact that it is so cute

And it suits the current Lawnscaping Challenge (#124)

Yeti Hugs

The husband of a friend has recently been diagnosed with lung cancer. Although the diagnosis is not as minor as first thought, they are maintaining a very positive attitude and great humor. I will be seeing her soon to give a hug in person, but in the meantime I am sending Yeti Hugs.

The color scheme is inspired by Cupcake Inspirations (#346), another challenge blog I have been wanting to try:

I got as close to the Berry as I could with my limited selection of Distress Inks.














The Yeti is painted with LuminArte Icicles to make him a sparkly silver

My attempt at the illusion of rolling hills did not quite work, but I don't think anyone will mind.

Last Minute Challenge

Hello again! This post is just a quickie in order to enter this weeks Lawnscaping Challenge (#123). I've been wanting to enter one of these for quite a while, but never seem to get done. (It would probably help if I was able to get started )

Without further ado, here is my entry for the "Sending Love" challenge:

It was a wrench cutting these after all the effort I put into coloring them. I wish I had taken a picture of their complete selves first.
