I missed the deadline for submitting this little guy to the Outlaws challenge, but I'm pretty pleased with how he turned out, so I'm sharing him here.

 Here are some challenge cards from last month that I never managed to get posted to the blog--it was a crazy month.  The top one was for Outlawz, the next two for Your Scrapbook Place, and the last for East Wind.

I also had several family card during the month.  I was late for Morgan's June birthday, but managed to finish Ryan's and Otto's cards on time for July.  I'm so blessed to have three nephews who are such special guys.














These are my cards for the Your Scrapbook Place DT for August.  Sherri Baldy is this month's sponsor.  She draws adorable big-eyed dolls.  However, in the past year she has also introduced a line of "Dimples" which I absolutely love.  So I used the Dimples dolls for my cards.

This month the Birdbrain Chick at From the Heart Stamps is floating thru  a summer day.  Too bad the sunscreen is floating away!
This is the month for sweets, I guess! Here's another great image and sentiment set from Imagine That Digis by Kris. The set includes two digi papers that I used plus several images pre-colored and black line drawings.  I used the cherry pie because I though the sentiment was so cute.


Here's my card for the July challenge at Deedee's Digis.  I just wish I could have some of this sweet ice cream.  BUT, I can console myself with the fact that I am now down 85 pounds!

This card is for the challenge at Imagine That digis by Kris.  I used the line drawing this month & colored it.  I also used one of the sentiments for the message inside.
This card is for the June challenge at Gerda Steiner Designs. Gerda does such darling images of kids. This one really reminds me of pictures of Gavin eating melon when he was about 5 or 6.
This cute little hedgehog is from Faith at From the Heart Stamps . I just love him. He's the image for the June Progressive Challenge.
Here's my card for Deedee's Digis June Progressive Challenge. I think it's a great set that I'll use a lot.

Finally, here are a couple of family cards.
This is my card for the May Progressive Challenge at Imagine That Digis. In the language of flowers. pansies are for thoughts and remembrance, so the image seemed perfect for a Thinking of You card.  The silk pansies didn't scan very well, but they are quite pretty on the actual card.

Here are the cards for Your Scrapbook Place's June Challenge.  This month's sponsor is Deedee's Digis. One card will post June 1 and the second on June 15.
This card is for the Artbymiran Facebook Group May Progressive Challenge.
Here's my card for the Outlawz Progressive Challenge for May.  The sponsor this month is Ppinkydolls.  These little waifs are really fun to color.
I love the stamp for the From the Heart Stamps May Progressive Challenge.  It's a great spring image that would work well for Mother's Day as well. They have spring images on sale now...just a little enabler alert.
This is my card for the May Progressive Challenge at Gerda Steiner Designs. I think Gerda's stamps get cuter with every release.
This was for the May 1 blog post at Your Scrapbook Place.  It is a pre-colored image so the card came together very quickly. The image is from Imagine That, a great sponsor for the group.
I also used a pre-colored image for the May15 update.

This is my final April craft item.  This page of Emmylou's dress up closet is for the ABC with a twist challenge at Soul Scrappers. The twist was to use a die cut.  I like this challenge because it encourages me to use some of my older embellishments each month.  The little princess is many year old--probably older than Emmylou!
Here's my card for the Outlawz Progressive Challenge for April--last minute as usual.  I had fun with this one.  I liked the image, plus I was able to use a lot of old stash items.  I wish I had cut the water to a more pond-like shape, but I didn't think of it until I'd glued it down.
