A couple of cards

I have a couple of cards to show today, one I made a while ago but haven't got round to blogging, and the other made this morning, before children awoke/arrived!!!

This is Sugar Nellie's Windswept Simply Sassy ... isn't her hair just fabulous!!!  I coloured her in using my Prisma pencils, think I'm getting the hang now LOL!!  I have kept it all simple, embossing the blue cardstock and matting everything onto red cardstock.  The ribbon is from my stash.
Challenges:
 The Ribbon Girl - red, white and blue
Fab n Funky - red/white and blue

I love my House Mousies and Happy Hoppers, and this cute bunny is perfect for the House mouse and Friends challenge this time.  He is coloured in distress inks and then cut out using my nesties.  The dp is BG Euphoria and I added some ribbon from my stash and some gems.  Simples really.

  Challenges:
Stamp with fun - sketch
House Mouse and friends - Travel/way to go
Cupcake Craft Challenge - Fluffy Bunnies
Simon Says Stamp - Anything Goes
Totally Gorguss - bling it on
