one post, RUBY + a couple of challenges...

The star of this post is Ruby!!
A most delightful Wild Sprout... available at The Greeting Farm and designed by Amy.
******************************
My first card is for FARM FRESH FRIDAY - which this week is Celebrating the fact that Marie, Jess and Randi are at CHA... and to HELP BRING ON THE SUN!
So here is my shiny, happy card...

My second card is for Sketchy Saturday #3 ... and as there is no prize/ this is just for fun then I'm hoping it's OK for me to combine this with the FLUTTERBY WEDNESDAY CHALLENGE ---the challenge this week is to use embossing -- any kind --- with your butterfly, fairy or angel.

I cut Ruby's head out so she would fit in the heart ... and I added in the "frills" around the heart - that were not in the sketch.... and added some butterfly bling!
Is it too pink???

I LOVED this sketch and think I just might have to give it another go sometime!! Note to self: Must file sketches I love and want to use again in a folder where I will see it!

Thanks for stopping by --- before I go - just a note of warning/ excitement....
TGF are having an amazing CHA relay race this week... starting Today (5pm Sun here in Sydney) ... it starts with a freebie Sprout (YAY!!!) and then if you make a card and post it by Mon -6pm CST (Tues at 11am here) you will get another sprout to participate in that days challenge and so on ... with the chance to get 5 free digi sprouts! I'll definitely be doing all I can to play along ... so watch out for lots more TGF cards in the next few days (lol... can you tell I LOVE them> hahaha) Well, here's hoping Marie, Jess and Randi are having a blast at CHA and that everyone else is having a GREAT weekend!
