My first card is a thank you note. Even though there is no sentiment on the front of the card, the little mouse is offering some oats to his cow friend, so I decided it will be a thank you note.

WOW!! Two absolutely ADORABLE and AMAZING cards Kara! Your little barn scene card is just blowing me away...your coloring is outstanding and the whole composition is FABULOUS!! And oh my gosh is it CUTE!!!!! And your shaker card is just as CUTE as can be too! Two wonderful, wonderful cards my friend!! :0)
ReplyDeleteShoot, Kara, I'm just sitting here with my mouth open, agog at your ability to create scenes and your coloring! I thought maybe the farm (w/o the mouse) was one stamp, but I looked at your supply list to make sure. Nope. You took a dozen stamps and masked and colored and created the adorable scenes on both your cards from scratch. Thud! And just because you could, you made your sweet floral card a shaker! Thud! Okay, stop it. Seriously, one of these times I'm gonna break a hip falling off my chair!! Hugs, Darnell xxoo
ReplyDeleteBoth cards exude sweetness! That little mouse has utterly charmed me. Such a darling critter and everything so beautifully colored. The barnyard scene is amazing. Such fun stamps! Love, love, love both cards!
ReplyDeleteI think this challenge was made for you lol. Your critters are coloured so perfectly and it seriously looks like you had so much fun creating these, thanks again for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteOh my word!! Your coloring on that first card is AMAZING!! Is that a one layer card? I could NEVER do that because I would make a mistake on at least one of the elements. I LOVE everything about it. Your second card with the flowers and the shaker with the critters-GENIUS. You rocked this challenge!!
ReplyDeleteI'm utterly speechless...these are nothing short of spectacular!!
ReplyDeleteKara, I am in AWE of that barn background you created for your thank you card. So fantastic. Your softer congratulations card is awesome as well. Such darling and wonderful cards for this months twofer!
ReplyDeleteTwo sweet cards with the little mouse image, Kara! Amazing barn scene and I love the shaker card too!!
ReplyDeleteSuch adorable cards Kara and the colouring is fabulous! Your scene in the first card has been assembled with such skill and is that second card a shaker?!! I love the soft colours and the half-frame of the flowers.
ReplyDeleteThese are both so darling!! Your barn card has so much depth. Excellent shadowing!! I love the shaker card too. Is is totally sweet.
ReplyDeleteKara, I think this challenge had you in mind … seriously!! Nobody does critters as cute as yours!! xx

Well hello Wanda (pronounced Kara)! I'll bet you thought I wasn't stopping by...fooled ya!! Sorry I'm a bit late. As always, I stared and stared at your cards, in full and total awe of your coloring. But not just that...your designs are incredible! Darling barn scene. Reminds me of days long gone. And your shaker card is soft and sweet. Love all those little flowers and the subtly colored critters. It's beautiful. I think I'm going to stand outside your mailbox, and every time you go to mail cards, I'll just steal them. Your cards are amazing. Missing you and sending hugs. xoxoxo bev
ReplyDeleteTwo fun cards that show off the versatility of this mouse! The shaker card is just fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThis farm scene is amazing. The critters are so cute and the milking stool and milk can are the greatest in this scene. The sending wishes your way is such a pretty design and mix of blues and purples.
ReplyDeleteOMG!!! These are so stunning! I can't express how much I love seeing your creations
ReplyDeleteAlways love to see your wonderful scenes, Kara ... not only so beautifully coloured and composed, but also so sweetly detailed! Every little bit of your barn yard has me gazing in awe ... the texture of the straw bale, the roughness of the woodgrain, the metallic coolness of the milk churn ... well, everything really ... simply stunning! Your sweet shaker is adorable ... you've given those cute little critters such lovely expressions ... they're perfect set amidst the gorgeous florals! Big hugs and bisous, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteSooo gorgeous!!!
ReplyDeleteWOW ! Absolutely stunning, Kara ! Your first card is a master piece with all these details, your incredible colouring...I can imagine all the masking you had to do ! Gorgeous and adorable scene. Your second card is also so cute and these flowers so delicate. Love the matching pearls within the shaker. Really breathtaking, I LOVE them ! Thanks so much for the inspiration. xx
