Sports Balls



I am back with another {PIN}Spirational Challenges card.

 

May 21-27

I do love my Whipper Snapper stamps and this one is a favorite because I was a coach or Athletic Director all of my working life--and I still love sports!
 
Here is the inside of my card:

Mystery Image-Blessed Mouse



This card is for a Mystery Swap on SCS. A group of us are doing a bi-monthly swap where we all use the same mystery image, sent to us by the hostess. This swap was created by Forest Ranger—Jeanette and we are now in our second cycle.   Melina chose this image and will swap the cards--then send us the next image,  which I sent to her.  I can't wait to get the swap cards back to see how everyone else used the same image. And then we get to do it all again and I will be the hostess.

I think this is the sweetest little mouse.  I cannot wait to see what everyone else does with this image.

Here is the inside of my card:

Con-grad-ulatons!


This is for the monthly swap that Pam hosts on SCS. Each month we make 10 swap cards and they can be any theme. All of the swappers are wonderful and I have gotten some awesome cards back in past months.

This month, I chose to make a graduation card--and kept it the traditional black and white so others can probably use it.

Here is the inside and the matching envelope.

Making Memories, Celebrating Moments!


It is the 15thof the month and that means another Dueling Darlings challenge. Our hostesses for May are our organizers--Kelly is the boss the Darlings and Jeanette is the Dazzler's leader. 
 
Here is the information that Kelly and Jeanette set up--Since May is traditionally the month of celebrating Mother's Day, many anniversaries, upcoming June weddings, Holy Communions and Confirmations, graduations and so much more, we thought we'd take this time to celebrate the moments that mean so much!  Our theme this month is:
Making Memories, Celebrating Moments! 
 
I loved all of the papers and embellishments that Kelly sent--I wanted to use all of it!  She gave us so many options and I think the image was too cute!

Here is the inside of my card.
