Throwback Thursday Challenge #8- Birthday Theme

Well- I got a little wrapped up with my Copics & Prismacolor markers this week and ran out of time to use my Cricut/Gypsy as much as usual & had to settle on a lonely little balloon.  I still love it though.  I bought a few stamps from "The Greeting Farm" & have been loving them.  So much fun to use with my pre-tween cards/pages, etc.  Thanks for another fun challenge, Emma!

07/16/2010 Thursday Throwback # 7 Wild Card

Here is this week's challenge from Emma at www.creativetimeforme.com:  "The theme for this week is "Your Favorite Holiday" theme & for this challenge, you would need to make a card!".   The cartridge that we are using is Wild Card.  I was pumped to use it for the first time.  

I love Thanksgiving- I was born in Canada where our Thxgiving is in October- the perfect time for brisk fall walks in the woods.  I added a few maple leaves to the card to represent my Canuck side. (They sparkle with Gold as did the Canadian Men's & Women's Hockey teams in Vancouver last year. Woo hoo!!!)   

Thx Emma- this was fun!!

Gypsy (I welded the leaves to the card shape to give the base some strength.  Then I cut out the leaves from the patterned paper I used.)
