Sentimental Sundays is hosting a great challenge featuring "Childhood." What a perfect challenge for me as I am a past educator. Children are so carefree and life is so simple. This Edwin card is one I made a while back, but it reminds me of those carefree days when children could run and play outside. Edwin looks as if he's having a blast!

7 Kids College Fund Challenge Blog is hosting "Challenge #8 Give Thanks."






What a fabulous challenge they have created this week. I am sooo excited to be able to enter one of my favorite cards that I created for my class that I taught at Scrappin' Friends Scrapbook Store.
I used Magnolia's "Standing Fall Tilda" for this design. I just love this stamp, she's so cute bundled up in her hat and scarf. She looks like she's ready for a fall walk along the river.
I colored the image with my Kooh-I-Noor Woodless colored pencils and mineral spirits.

Other ingredients:
Paper: Basic Grey-"Pyrus"
Buttons: Papertrey Ink
Cardstock: Bazzill
Twine and Chestnut Roan chalk ink

Thought I would let you know, my cards are now for sale in the "Enjoy the Store." If you aren't familiar with this new store, it is in downtown Redding, across from Leatherby's Family Creamery. It is a store owned by the "Enjoy" Magazine, and showcases local artists work. It was a juried selection to be in the store, and my cards were chosen. I am very honored to have been asked to be a part of this very classy establishment. There are many talented artists in the store-so be sure to go and take a look.
