SIP #16 DesignersChoice

Good Tuesday Morning Everyone!!  Welcome to the 16th challenge at Stamp, Ink, Paper.

https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwp.me%2Fp6hi7Y-7m&h=mAQHtCJbP
I have to admit, I struggle with these kinds of challenges, because I find it too hard to narrow down what to use on my card....  I have way too many favorites to choose from!!  :)

My sister asked me over the weekend to make a bunch of cards for her Goddaughter's upcoming birthday. Her idea is to give her about 10 cards, with instructions to open them when she is having a bad day, needs a pick-me-up, is lonely, and so on...... I love the idea, so said I would be glad to help!!
So, these are some of what I have come up with so far....


I love Gorgeous Grunge...... I have to admit, it was around a long time before I purchased it, and now I don't know what I was waiting for!!  It is so versatile, and great for use on cards fro kids, or, in this case, a teenager.  The colors I used are Daffodil Delight, Cucumber Crush, Real Red, and Tempting Turquoise.  The sentiments are from the 'Simply Wonderful' Sale-a-Bration set from last year. 
 
Since I am making a pile of cards for her, I am glad I can make cards like these quite quickly.
 
Hope you enjoy my creations. Please take a moment to join our challenge!!!!  I would like to see what a few of your favorite things are.  :)
Make it a great day!!
Lisa

  4. I love this card Lisa! So bright, cheery and graphic. I also waited to add gorgeous grunge to my collection and now wonder what I would do without it.
