Happy St. Patrick's Day/Hey Buddy!

Hi readers!  Well I've been having quite an awesome weekend!  How is everyone?  I've been absolutely AMAZING lately!  First - I won the DeNami Buttons Challenge which guaranteed me a spot in the already full March Blog Hop, so YAY!  THEN, I was also featured on the Cards Magazine blog for THIS card!  WOO HOO!  This really has my mojo flowing this week!!! 

I've got two fun cards for you today!  Here's the first one:
I'm not Irish, but my husband is!  He asked me about a week ago if I was gonna make any St. Patrick's Day cards, and I remembered that Hats off to You from Lawn Fawn has a St. Patrick's Day sentiment!  Thus, this card was born!  I paper-pieced the dog and his hat, so I'm submitting this for the current Lawnscaping challenge: 


Current Challenge
Fun fun!  I also recently got the CUTEST little stamp set from PTI with airplanes!  My brother-in-law is becoming a pilot in Florida, so I just KNEW I wanted to send him a postcard with these stamps!  Here's what I made:

I seriously love the little vintage airplane!  I also used a sentiment from PTI's Fillable Frames #2 at the bottom of the card.  I wanted to make fun clouds, so I used the awesome cloud stamp from Lawn Fawn's Partly Cloudy.  I know this little guy with brighten my BIL's day!  =)  This card was inspired by the current City Crafter Challenge Blog - Nothin To It. (the challenge was to not add ribbons, buttons, or any sort of embellishment to your card!)

I also just submitted my first EVER cards for publication!  Eeek it was nerve-wracking but I'm proud of myself!  Let's see what happens!
