CAS Challenge - Favorite Sweet Treats!

This week's Challenge on the CAS group on Outlawz is to
make a card featuring one of your favorite sweet treats!

One of my daughters' always leaves ice-cream in my 
fridge and I never touch it - until now!  Perhaps because
of the very hot weather we are having.  So deciding on a
favourite sweet treat was easy.  Luckily I had this very
cute digi stamp to use.

A Wedding Card

I really like to make wedding cards (well, all cards really)
and I like images that are humorous - isn't this a cute
couple?

A Guy's Card

The other day my step grandson had his 22nd birthday
and my daughter suggested I bring a card to his
celebration at their home.  I did not have much to
choose from!  So I need to replenish my 'guy' cards.

I've Joined The Outlawz - My First Challenge There

I didn't actually mean to join but I wanted to see what it was
all about!  Anyway, I am going to see if I have time to be
active there - having a blog, being on a great DT team and
taking part in challenges and being active on a couple of
web sites is very time consuming.  But it is so hot here now
(in Israel), I don't think I will be doing too much walking around
during the day.

I joined a CAS (clean & simple) group and here is my card - I
like to add bows and pearls etc. but I had to remind myself that
the card had to be simple.

A Card For A 100th Birthday!

How many times do we make cards for people who reach
one hundred years of age!  MIL's sister will reach that age
this month - she is the only survivor from a large family, and
thank G-d I hear she is doing well.  (She's in the US). I
think I played it safe by using flowers on my card.

Challenge at Pink Gem Designs

The challenge this week is Buttons, Bows, Bling & Butterflies
all of which I like to use. This challenge will run from 23 June until 
6th July.  Worth going to the blog just to see the DT creations - 
each one is lovely.
It was difficult photographing the card because of the appertage on
the front of it.  The antenna of the butterfly are made from wire.
