Challenge card completed

Here is my card I did for the weekly challenge. I bought the cupcake stamp at Moments in Time scrapbook store. (The owner Lori has so many cute things!) the paper is all Stampin Up!, the bats at the bottom are a Martha Stewart punch I bought a few years ago, and the jack-o-lantern is also a MS punch I bought last year. I colored the stamp with Primas and a aqua pen, and the highlights are glaze/souffle pens.
Sorry it's a bit blurry, there was a huge fingerprint on the lens of my camera I didn't realize was there lol

I'm a glimmer mist smurf lol

Today I was playing with a Glimmer Mist I bought a few months ago and forgot about. Very pretty color and of coarse it sparkles. Little did I know that working with it would turn me into, as Stephanie says, a smurf! I sprayed the Glimmer Mist onto white card stock to make more lollipop flowers (12 of them actually) and it got all over my hands. I didnt think much about it until I tried to wash it off and although the "shimmer" came off the blue remains. LOL
Here is the card I was making. I think it turned out really cute.

I used my Slice (Basic 1 card) to cut the flowers in white cardstock, and the leaves from lime green textured cardstock. I used Sapphire Blue glimmer mist on the flower and English Ivy glimmer mist on the leaves.The clear transparency is from Sheetloads of Cards

Birthday card for Sarah's dad

Sarah asked me to make a card for her to send to her dad. I've put it off for days and today I spent 4 hours in my room trying to come up with something. This is the final results. The first picture shows totally together, and the 2nd one shows it with the middle pulled out.

Lollipop flowers

On the PaperCraft message board there is a weekly challenge. The May 17th challenge (that I finally got around to doing today lol) Was to make a card without a typical straight line, and it had to have a lollipop flower on it. (Here is a link to the tutorial on the lollipop flower) So here is my card for that challlenge.
Then the challenge for the May 24th was a sketch. I used the sketch and because I had so much fun making lollipop flowers for my little hat I made one for this weeks card too. Unfortunately with both cards the scanner flattened my flowers and the glimmer mist cant be seen.
Here is the card:

Mother's Day cards

I've been overwhelmed with mother's day gifts for my mom and my mother in law. I made them each a birthday card organizer full of birthday cards. Silly me forgot to take pictures of them. But I did want to share the Mother's Day cards I made. I made 3 similar cards (one for my mom, his mom, and his step mom) and a card for my Grandmother.
