Archiscraps April challenge

The APRIL challenge at Archiscraps is to be inspired by Ancient Egypt. when I first saw this challenge I thought easy peasy LOL I was wrong I had no ideas it took me a while...I went through my crafty supplies and NOTHING jumped out at me...so I thought hieroglyphics would be cool...thus my card was born, honestly, I really love how it turned out...I just had to shut my brain off and let it happen!

 challenge at Archiscraps

 Think of all things about Egypt: Mummies, hieroglyphics, archaeologists, the Nile, the pyramids, the Sphinx, cats, scarab beetles and others.

You can do a layout, card, bookmark, tag, off the page item, so long as it is paper!
Don't forget to explain the connection.

 I hope you stop by the blog and check out the rest of the design team's inspiration and then play along!

Stay Safe and Healthy!

Scrap Africa No 53

the new challenge over at Scrap Africa was just posted and I couldn't wait to take a crack at it!! I have all these pretty papers from My Minds Eye Hello world which is all about traveling!!
can you tell where I took my inspiration from? yup yup it was the little cars in the background and the colors...I made this card for my hubby, he's leaving on a week long trip this Friday...driving all the way to Oregon....so I thought I would stash this with a little note in his bag!

Curtain call Flip Flops

When I saw the new inspiration board over at Curtain Call Inspiration Challenge....Flip Flops...can you believe it! I was totally excited (yeah I know simple minds are easily amused) but I had this idea....here is the card I came up with...just a few scraps that were left over from a beach layout and a pair of flip flops I created with my silhouette portrait...

But as you can see I didn't stop there...I had to make a whole other card just because the first one was so cute LOL
