CASology #57 Picnic

One more post for today and a quick one at that....this week's cue card for CASology#57 is Picnic, I went through all my stamps and came up empty for picnic images but then I found this big mosquito stamp from Market Street stamps that I thought would work great.  I stamped and embossed him is black and because these little buggers suck blood thought a bit of red would go well.  Thank you so much for stopping by to peek at my card....have a fabulous rest of your week!

Papertrey Ink's MIM #104 Handmade Pinwheels and RetroSketches #51

Today I have two cards to share, one for PTI's Make It Monday and one for this week's RetroSketch's challenge. On both cards I decided to pull out stamps that had not been used before.

For this week's MIM Ashley taught us how to make pinwheels out of a piece of square paper, it was so quick and easy to make. I adhered two pieces of patterned paper together to have 2 colors but next time I would use a piece of double sided paper, it would not be as thick and easier to fold over. Head of to Nichole's blog and take a peek at all the wonderful creations that have these adorable little pinwheels on them. 

My second card is for RetroSketches I used a stamp from Market Street with a camping theme and pulled out patterned paper from last years Stamp-A-Faire to match.
