CPS, Embellish Magazine, Saturday Spotlight and Clean and Simple

Happy Monday, Everyone!!
(is there such a thing as "happy monday"??)
hmmm??
Anyways, just a quick post today
 showing a few cards that I created yesterday

Card #1
For the sketch over at CPS

I guess I didn't go quite as tall and skinny, but nevertheless, I followed the sketch and this is what I came up with. This little cute owl stamp is from Stampin' Bella. The great thing about this stamp, is it came with a few different sentiments so it can be used for different occassions. I colored her with my Tombow watercolours.
Here is a close up :
and the watercolor pens I used :

Card # 2


Here's what I came up with :
This button tree had my 5yr old daughter
 drawing button EVERYTHING yesterday!!
So cute!!
Button sun, button hair, button grass...
Oh, I should post some of her drawing, they would bring a smile to anyone's face!!

Card #3
For the current challenge over at Saturday Spotlight - to CLEAN it up!!
and
For the current sketch over at Clean and Simple :

I loved the idea of the chandelier and I remembered I had some chandelier stamps that haven't seen much love lately so...

and the inside :
I thought this is a great card to have on hand when someone you know is going through a rough time (and you don't know what to say??!!)
I really like how clean this one turned out!!

Okay well, it's 4:45pm and I can hear my daughter snoring on the couch!! I better run and wake her up so she will (hopefully) go to bed at a decent time tonight!! lol!!
