The Crazies are going crazy for HEARTS this week. I used this old Hero Arts Viine Heart along with my Cuttlebug Heart embossing folder to meet that goal. I added some Primas, lace from May Arts, and ruffled gingham ribbon from Really Reasonable Ribbon. I used my Lacey Circles from Spellbinders, my Copics, and some pearls from A.C.Moore.
Now you really need to hop over to the Crazy4Challenges blog to see the works of 'heart' by the rest of this fabulous team. But....first check out my other challenge team card.........
We had our first sketch challenge on the Speedy's Friends Blog Team (well, first since I have been playing). Unfortunately, I am somewhat computer illiterate and just could not 'snatch' the sketch from Vicki's original email to show you here. You can check the team blog to see it, or imagine my card reversed.....I just couldn't have that bunny looking the wrong way on the card.....so I used the sketch in reverse.
I used this fun basket of 'cuteness' from the newly released set by Mark's Finest Papers called SPRING HAS SPRUNG. I used my Spellbinder dies, a Martha Stewart border punch, my Marvy corner rounder, my Copics, and my fav May Arts lace.
It will be fab to see how the rest of the team used the sketch.
Now here are the links to get you to the two challenge team blogs so you can gaze upon the creations of the other team members.

This third card I am sharing with you is the one I made for the Teapot challenge this week. Our goal was to create cards with things that fly. The recipient of our cards this week is Sean who is 23 years old. He has stage 3C testicular cancer. He has had initial surgery and four rounds of chemo, and unfortunately has identified spots in other locations, some that surgery cannot help.
Let's hope the 'swarm' of cards can help brighten his day. It is so sad when someone this young is facing such a difficult medical journey.
If you have some free time, join the Teapot Challenge each week and help make someon's day.

Your 'Crazies' card has the most beautiful wreath. I see you've used some ribbon that I've bought in a different color and am very anxious to use.
The card for the sketch challenge is just so adorable.
That is a very sad story about the young man and I hope your beautiful bird card will help lift his spirits.
