2 Cards for 3 Challenges

I am back! And I have 2 cards to share with you. I will be entering these in a couple challenges.

 The above card will be entered into the challenge at I (heart) sketches and is based on this sketch

The brown paper is early espresso from Stampin' Up. The red paper is recollections. The cream paper is Very Vanilla from Stampin' Up. The 2 red squares were run through the embosser with the Cuttlebug Swiss Dots die. The phone booth stamp is from the Stampin' Up Feeling Sentimental set. The phone receiver was cut out on the Cricut from the From My Kitchen cartridge. I used gold floral wire that I wrapped around a pencil and used to form the semi circle seen on the sketch. The two vertical polka dotted lines are fabric tape.

I knew when I got the Feeling Sentimental stamp set that I wanted to use the phone booth with the sentiment spread the word, but had not idea what to do with it. When I saw the sketch, the stamp immediately came to mind because the semi-circle in the sketch reminded me of a phone cord for whatever reason.

This next card will be entered into 2 challenges: 1) Die Cuttin' Divas and 2) Bitten by the Bug2.

The challenge at Bitten by the Bug 2 is to use any card feature. I used the card function from beyond birthdays for this. The egg is from Create A Critter 2, the flower tail is from 3 Birds on Parade, the circles and ovals are cut from Cricut Craft Room Basics.

The challenge from Die Cuttin Divas is embossing with ribbon.
This picture shows the wood grain embossing on the brown "tree" trunk. I also embossed the pads of the bunny's feet with Swiss Dots, but then covered the dots with pink glitter glue. I decided to tie a bow around the Easter egg. Then stuck a pink flat back pearl on the bunny's tail. This card was inspired by a card made at a Stampin' Up card camp I attended this past weekend. All papers used were from recollections except for the Easter Egg, it is from DCWV.

Please feel to ask questions, leave comments, etc.

Have a great night!
