Design Dollies and Peachy Keen Card

I made this card for a couple of challenges. The first was http://designdollies.blogspot.com/2009/12/design-dollies-new-color-challenge-and.html
They have an awesome new color challenge. They gave us Mardi Gras colors: Green, Purple, and Yellow. I thought it would be fun to use the bright traditional colors of mardi gras. Once I finished it doesn't look like mardi gras at all :). I followed the sketch from http://peachykeenstampschallenge.blogspot.com/2009/12/peachy-keen-stamps-challenge-18.html I also used a peachy keen stamp. It's the flower pot from PK243. The sentiment is from SU from the "Three Little Words" set. The paper I used on the flower and the border I got from my very generous sister :). My butterflies I've had forever and used them only a couple times. At first they were flat and one dimensional so I layered them and love the affect. Hope you all enjoy and I'm looking forward to all of your lovely comments. Take care, V

Peachykeen Challenge

This is for this weeks Peachy Keen Challenge. They asked for polka dots (which is on the ribbon), a border (plain red border), stripes (on the background to "Can't Catch Me"), and a stamped image (PK243). I used a peachy keen face on my gingerbread man who I cut with the cricut. I also used the cricut to cut the gingerbread house and the cop car. I embossed snow on the gingerbread house. My kids spilled lucky charms on the living room floor and instead of throwing them away I lined my gingerbread house with them. This is the first of many thank you bags for my kids teachers. I'm looking forward to comments :).
