Crazy 4 Cocoa , Happy Monday & Birthday cards!

This is my Crazy 4 Cocoa challenge card this week. It did not turn out how I planned. I have paper with gift boxes on it and I tried to color Cocoas image to match. The colors didn't match at all...ugh! I am happy with the colors of this card, and Cocoa looks so cute peeking out of the box!

I almost forgot to snap pictures of these birthday cards. I hurried up and did this morning before we left to take  Jeff to work. These are a few of what I took to the lady who ask me to make a birthday card for her granddaughter. She ended up buying 3! She wants more! Yeah!

This is the inside of that card.

These were so much fun to make. I used my Jellyroll pen that my friend, Sandy, gave me to add some sparkle to their dresses and the cupcakes & balloons.

These little girls are from Digi Web Studio artwork by Cheryl Seslar.

Inside sentiment on this card says " Celebrate one cupcake at a time"!

Here is a card I made for the Happy Monday challenge ! I used Deedees birthday bear...isn't he cute? It is  a "Kids need love too" challenge. I made this for one the little boys in our church. I'm going to mail it to him on his birthday.

I'm excited to make more cards for the ladies I exercise with..the lady who owns the place ask me to bring in a basket of card to sell. She said ladies are always saying they need to pick up a card for some event. Hoping to make enough money to buy more supplies! I went back to the scrapbook store that is a couple of blocks from here yesterday. Oh, I could spend a fortune there! So much cute stuff!
Have a happy, crafty day!
