World Card Making Day

Ohhh, the interwebs is abuzz with World Card Making Day!  It seems like everyone is busting out the paper scraps and sentiment stamps to celebrate and I surely can’t be left behind! 

Fancy Pants has teamed up with a favorite of mine… Operation Write Home.  OWH sends cards overseas to our men and women in uniform for them to send home to their loved ones.  I highly recommend checking out exactly what they do and contributing! Head on over to the Fancy Pants blog to see some inspiring cards, a blog hop, and giveaways!

I created this baby card using the Hopscotch collection and an Artist Edition alphabet card:

Paper Issues is also having a ton of fun today on our Facebook page! 

We’re giving away four $20 Paper Issues gift certificates to lucky peeps who post a card to our wall.  Easy!
Annnnnnnd… don’t forget that you can use my code “SCRAPGOO” in the Paper Issues store *anytime* for a cool 20% off!

Here are a couple of super simple toddler birthday cards I whipped up last month.  We had a three year old girl’s birthday to attend:

And a four year old boy’s fire truck party too:

Both of these were cut with the Silhouette.  The circus tent card uses Fancy Pants’ Summer Soul collection and the fire truck card is entirely cardstock… which I never do!

Finally, if you need a challenge to get your mojo flowing head on over to Pink Paislee where you can enter to win the entire City Sidewalks collection!

All you have to do is create a card around any of our 5 challenges:
Make It Masculine
Make A Shadowbox Front
Make It Mini
Stamp, Stack & Stick
Make A Custom Shape

You can link up an image of your card to any blog post from this week or link up your project on the Pink Paislee Facebook page. 

So have fun carding today and don’t get too lost in all the fantastic inspiration around the web!  Go get gluing!
