Driving by with a birthday "Hi"

This weeks Cute Card Thursday Challenge is ....."transport". Planes, trains and automobiles but obviously not limited to those things, any kind of transport! Have fun!

For my card i used Stampin up's "Loads of Love" set - I stamped Tilda and the truck on watercolor paper and colored everything with the colors i picked up from my Designer Paper (Stampin up "Afternoon Tea). Circle is cut and embossed with the large circle Nestabilities set - on Tildas wings is Stickles.

It is defenetly worth to check out all the cards during the week that are going to be posted on the Cute Card Thursday blog - cause i know we always have faboulus stampers posting their work!

Daily Notes

I skiped last weeks Ismaki Challenge cause I just had no ideas.. this weeks was again a real challenge for me :-) no way I was skipping the sketch. So I really sat down and moved my elements on the card. The second flower on the upper right corner was replaced using a swirl i got from Donalda. I used on purpose one of the older style Magnolia's just because i thought they should not be forgotten. I omitted on her hat the little "ball" so it would not look more springy rather than a winter hat.
