Stamp Shoppe Challenge & A Little Extra

Good afternoon all!! I'm feeling a little waterlogged.  It's been raining for, what feels like, a week & it doesn't look like it's going to end until tomorrow.  As long as it's bright, hot & sunny for the 5th, I don't care.  My oldest son, Riley, turns 7 on Saturday & we're having some of his school friends over for a party.  An outdoor party is on the agenda & I would like to keep it that way :)

Anyways, on to my last minute submission to the May challenge over at the Stamp Shoppe.  Here's the challenge...we are to make a card using the colors Turquoise, Cream Peony, Honey Yellow, Saffron & Walnut.  I must admit, I started on this challenge at the start of the month, but this card has been haunting me all month.  I don't know, I can't put my finger on it.  But, here it is anyways in all it's glory :)

Materials: Card Stock (Bazzill, Wausau); Paper, Flowers & Stamps (Magnolia); Ink (Momento); Pen (Uniball); Markers (Copic); Dollie (Wilton); Lace (Dollarama); Spray (Tattered Angels); Stickles (Ranger); Chipboard Swirl (Pebbles)

Here's my little extra.  After showing my niece an altered CD tin in the 1st issue of MagnoliaInk, she wanted to do one.  So, I promised her that the next time I came for a visit, I would order some & we would do one.  So, here's my altered CD tin.

Materials: Card Stock (Wausau); Paper (Basic Grey); Stamp & Flowers (Magnolia); Markers (Copic); Pen (Uniball); Ink (Momento); Ribbon (stash); Pearls (Queen & Co)

I had so much fun doing this!! Now, it's got me thinking about making a half dozen up for Christmas with Christmas music on the CD as presents. OOOOOoooooo, I just thought .... could do one up with the Magnolia babies & have a lullaby CD inside as a baby gift.  Ohhhh the possibilities are endless!!!  Alas, I only have 1 CD tin left (a circle one), so I guess I'll have to plan very carefully what I'm going to do

Hope everyone has a great week!! Thanks for stopping by :)
