Open-Minded Crafting Fun Challenge #12

Hello friends.  Today begins the new challenge over at Open-Minded Crafting Fun.  We had a great turn out for the last challenge.  Thanks for playing along.

This challenge runs for two weeks and our theme is "Things with Wings."

We have some great sponsors for this challenge:
                                                               

I was able to use a new stamp company for this challenge.  I had a hard time picking an image too.  Here's what I made using Aurora Wings.

I wasn't real sure what to do with this image after I chose it.  I stared at it for three days before I finally came up with an idea.  I love the little owls, but for some reason my creative mojo just wasn't mojoing for me.  Finally, thinking about the whole see no evil, speak no evil, hear no evil thing it dawned on me that birthdays sometimes make you feel that way, hence the sentiment.

Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I hope y'all  will join us for this great challenge.  Have a wonderful weekend and God bless y'all.

Time to Play Catch Up

Hello.  I have quite  a few cards to play catch up with.  I am going to post all of them with this post.  No recipes, just the challenge and the card so that I am caught back up.  My friend is coming today to try and get my computer working so that I will have access to my digi stamps.  I'm lost without my pc.

The first challenge is Open Minded Crafting Fun.  Challenge #11 is Fairy Tale/Fantasy.

Our sponsors for this challenge are:

It was brought to my attention that this is actually a little bestie boy.  I thought it was a girl. :)  How about join us for this great and easy challenge this week.


My next card is for Melonheadz Friends.  Our challenge this time is "When I Grow Up".  With schools letting out for the summer and seniors graduating, this is a great theme.

I used Nikki's "Community Helpers" bundle to create this card.    Our challenges are always for two weeks and I hope y'all will stop by and maybe even join in.

Next up, is MFP's Sketch with a Twist.  Our sketch this week is :               
                       

My "Thinking of You" sentiment wouldn't fit on the front, so I added to the inside.  We have a wonderful stamp image up for grabs this week.  
                                                                    

I hope to see y'all this week at MFP.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope to see some of my great followers entering cards in the above challenges.  I pray y'all have a great week.  God bless.

I chose to use Delicious Doodles for this challenge.
