JB # 29 Dragon's

Just Buggin' Challenge #29 Make a Man themed project. Cake decorating is one of my other hobbies. I have collected many pans over the years. This is the cake I made for Dru's Birthday. He likes dragon's. I have had this cake pan for years, I picked it up at a yard sale--because it looked cool. It has sat downstairs for a few years. I am glad to finally be able to use this. I am pretty pleased how it turned out. If someone would have told me when I bought this cartridge "Happily Ever After" that I would be making my boyfriends birthday card. I would have said "you are silly" But Mulan actually has quit the awesome dragon, and I love the tree. This card is a little out of my box, but I like how it turned out. After I cut out the dragon I embossed him in gold. The tree is cut out of always artichoke, and soft suede. The paper is SU! DSP- soft suede, and the gems-I picked up a while ago from oriental trading. (sometimes they have some good finds.) I hope you enjoy my manly card-for my favorite man. Have a great day.

Sympathy

I did this card for the swap challenge in April 09, however I didn't follow the sketch. I just knew I wanted to use this stamp. That was the reason for getting this stamp was for sympathy cards.

Thinking of You

I must admit I hate to waste anything. The flowers on the bottom are a recovered mistake. I just couldn't toss it. I was actually pretty happy of the outcome, if nothing else it is original.

The colors I used were summer sun, tangerine, riding hood. I used my creative memories ovals to cut out the part on top, and stamped in thinking of you.
