5/4/26 - Make My Monday #277 Star Wars/Space - Kids Birthday Card with Punch Art Rocket

Happy Monday and welcome back first Monday in May for our Make My Monday challenge - space theme! My son loves all things space, so I am surprised that I didn't have any space related stamp set! I got creative and saw a sample in Pinterest and decided to case it with what I have. The moon is punched out with 2 3/8" Circle punch and used smaller punches to create a crater. The rocket is creating with Oval Dies and different size of circle punches. I hope you enjoyed this punch art creation and can't wait to see your master piece!

I stamped the flower image and butterflies and colored them both in with Markers. The white background piece is embossed to give it some texture.

5/3/26 - Dragonfly Challenge May 2026 (Use Die Cuts) - Capturing Smiles,

Happy first Sunday of May at Dragonfly Challenge - this month we are making cards with Die Cuts and I used the Capturing Smiles from Online Exclusive for the challenge. I stamped the mini camera image onto the 2 tone cardstock, along with black film strips and this other film thingy (gosh, I don't even know what it is!) I put it all on top of a bright yellow DSP from Boardwalk Fun. I thought the blue hearts would be fun as well, rather than the typical red/pink heart. I hope you enjoyed this card I am sharing today and be sure to join us at the challenge. 




Challenge: May 2026

Stamps: Capturing Smiles, 
Colors: Black, 
Papers: White, Black, Boardwalk Fun DSP, Blueberry Bushel, Shy Shamrock, Pool Party,

Welcome back to Alphabet Challenge and happy Friday! Today at Alphabet Challenge we are doing A for Air and I have a rainbow card for you. Rainbow can be observed when there are water drops in the AIR so I think it fits the challenge. The rainbow was created with the DSP and I cut down the sentiments to each of the word to put around the rainbow. Hope you enjoyed this card and be sure to join us at the challenge.
