Fuzzy For You

Good Morning!
It's time for a fabulous new challenge at One Stitch At A Time.....#170 Anything Goes!! The sponsor for this weeks challenge is StitchyBears Digi Outlet with the digi images that the DT  team used in challenge #168. So that's $20 + worth of images.
 To win our main prize you MUST use an image that's available in StitchyBear Digi Outlet by any of our creators.. Remember to put a # after your name so Choccy can find you easily. Occasionally she catches ones from our store but just in case please add # after your name.
 You can still enter with a none StitchyBear Digi Outlet image but will be entered into a separate draw to win $3 to spend in our store.
 One of my terrific teamies picked a super cute image for us to use this time and I was able to combine several challenges into this one card; whoo hoo. I am super pleased with how this one turned out.

Take a peak:

That means no square shaped cards, gift boxes, bags, etc, are eligible to win the prize this week. Tricky tricky :) And, I was super fortunate to be assigned to use one of the digi images by Luke Carr Designs this week. My grandson celebrated his 2nd birthday today and Luke's digi was perfect!

Enchanted Ocean

Good afternoon Blog-land!
Popping on here in between severe thunder storms to get some posting done. Some of this is a bit overdue :(

First up is the card I made for my sweet hubby for Father's Day. James has been a scuba diver for at least 20 years so when I saw this image from The Paper Shelter, I just had to have it for our Father's Day Challenge. I just know James is going to LOVE it! You could also use this set for a card with 'The Little Mermaid' theme.
