My anniversary card for today looks like a standard A2 card . . .

CCEE1608 Floral Design Day

As her last challenge this month, Lynn informed us that in 1995 Massachusetts Governor William Weld declared Febrary 28th as Floral Design Day to honor educator Carl Rittner, the founder of the Rittner School of Floral Design.  As my mother was a very talented floral designer, I was very happy to comply with Lynn's request to do some paper and ink floral designs.


Check out the CCEE Stampers blog to see some more floral design work!

My card for today is an easel birthday card.  I've had those cloth-covered brads in my drawer for at least five years!  I was so glad I made a project in which I could use them.


For this card I used the MFP Stamp Shop mini set called All About Love.

CCEE1606 Heart Animals

Lynn continues as hostess for the CCEE Stampers this week.  She says, "Way back when I was in grade school, every Valentine's Day my classmates and I had such fun creating Valentine Critters to decorate our Valentine boxes.  The task for today is to create an animal of any kind on your card in which you use heart shapes for some of its body parts." 

Well, I must have been a deprived child because I don't remember ever doing that.  I struggled with this challenge until I received some encouragement from my fellow teammates.  I finally came up with this card.  I hope that you can see that the crows' heads are punched hearts. 


I'm sure the rest of the team did a much better job with this challenge than I did.  Be sure to pop on over to the CCEE Stampers blog to see.

CCEE1605 Cold Weather Activity

Lynn is the new hostess for this month's CCEE Stampers challenges.  Today she asked us to make a card depicting some winter activity.   I've lived in Florida for 48 years, so I have very little recent history of "winter activities."  However, when I was a kid, one of those activities was ice skating.  Of course, I never looked like this skater.


Be sure to check out the CCEE Stampers blog to see what other winter activities have been mentioned.

Scor-Pal Challenge -- Pink or Blue

The Scor-Pal Blog Team was given a color choice for this month's "More Than One Score" challenge -- pink or blue.  With those choices, a baby card was the obvious way to go.  I chose blue and made a curved side-step card, using images from an MFP Stamp Shop set called Bundle of Joy.
