The Craft's Meow - Hope Blooms

I needed a couple sympathy cards this week, so here are some quick and simple ones.  The Deepest Sympathy sentiment is from Hope Blooms, available at The Craft's Meow.

The patterned paper is a 4x6" DCWV stack I found on clearance at Joann's.  I thought the cardstock was really interesting; the black is flocking.  The stitching was done on the sewing machine with white thread.
The cardstock is PTI Kraft and Bazzill Raven.  The gems on this second card are also from my trip to Joann's.  They are Darice brand sticky back rhinestones.  They were in the general crafts, jewelry aisle - not card making.  Love the sticky back!

Challenges:
Whimsy Stamps - Stitches
Inky Impressions - Flowers
Lady Anne's Challenge - Sentiment & Anything Goes
The Kraft Journal - Favorite color (neutrals) with Kraft

Happy Thursday!

Today, I have an Inspiration post, using an image from the last release, for my Little Miss Muffet post.  This is Claudia's Butterflies by Pollycraft.  There is a small new release this week - 3 new LMM rubber stamps: Ginger, Lavender and Daisy Rock.  
For this card, I printed out the image twice, one for the background and one for the image of the log and Claudia. I popped the flower and butterfly for some added dimension.  The flowers are actually cut from the base image.

Little Miss Muffet - Build A Monster

We have a new challenge at Little Miss Muffet - Boys Only.  I created a monster using LMM Build a Monster bundle.  I wanted something that looked sluggish, because I had this funny sentiment I won last Fall in a challenge.  Well, I think it is quite funny. 
Build a Monster is such a great set to play with, mixing all the different elements to create something new.
