Card making spree ;)

Looks like I am going mad... With two cards in every post, yeah me too think so :D but I am making cards for a few friends and hence whatever challenge hits me with an idea, I go ahead with it 
So, my first card is inspired by the theme at The Paper Players #163 - CAS challenge for Kids and by the colors at CAS Colors and Sketches #43
To make this I hand drew the magician's hat and colored and fuzzy cut this. The balloons were made by cutting out circles using my Sizzix dies and colored, the strings were hand drawn. All the elements were added using foam dots and final touches were made by adding the confetti I made using my paper puncher and coloring them with challenge colors. Sentiment is stamped from Paper Sweeties you make me smile set :)

Now my second card is a complete opposite of the first, inspired by colors at Addicted to Stamps and more #63 and sketch at Freshly Made sketches #104 and the theme at Keep it Simple #23 - FLOWERS
To make this the blue panel was masked and stamped using mini grid background stamps from Studio G -iClear set. It was then slightly shaded with ink. The flower was stamped and inked and the leaf was cut out from DCWV pattern paper using my foliage dies from Nestabilities. These were then inked a little around the edges. Finally all the elements were stuck to match the sketch and sentiment was stamped :)
