Paper Popsicle Card and it's a Bad Day to be a TOOTH FAIRY!!!!

So this week's card challenge at Paper Pospicles is this sketch, made exclusively by Amy Duff for Paper Popsicles. She is such a card diva!! Why don't you try the sketch this week and load it here using Mr. Linky. The winner will receive 3 digital designs. Be sure to check out all the NEW designs in the Paper Popsicles store.
This is what I did with the sketch. I so love using up scraps of junk I have laying around in my stash!!!!

Today, Hannah had to have 3 more teeth pulled. I am so scared of dentists, so I have dear hubby take her again. For some reason, her grown up teeth grow BEHIND the baby teeth. You can't wiggle those buggers if you life depended on it. Check out the SIZE!

And here is a close up. She is such a trooper!

It is amazing how much her face changes with some teeth missing! I guess the tooth fairy will go broke tonight. Three teeth to pay for. Sheeshk!

Thanks for looking and happy scrapping!

Some cards for you!

I finally finished up the sketch challenge from Paper Popsicles that you can find here. I used the cupcake digital images found in the Paper Popsicles store too. It is getting easier to use stamps and digital designs. The designs at the Paper Popsicles store are the bomb! What a value. You can resize them which is so much fun. My kids even enjoy coloring them in! Check it out

This was just another card I made with the digital designs at Paperpopsicles. I really wanted to try using some of my embossing folders too. Things are gathering dust as I collect!!! lol Then finally, last but definitely not least is Inspirational Card Sketches. This week's sponsor is Lily Boo Boutique. They are giving the lucky winner a set of these cute little images!!!!
Here is the sketch this week. You can load them up here.I actually had one made for the sketch early in the week and then the generous gal at Lily Boo Boutique gave the DT the images to play with so I did two cards.

Thanks for looking and happy scrapping!
