trying to get out of my creative slump

My work schedule has been so hectic this spring that I haven't had much of a chance to do anything crafty in ages. Last weekend i tried to get my creative juices flowing again. Heck I was even embellishing ready made 'thank you' cards just to spark some creativity.

This is a card that our "kids" made for my husband who was working out of town this week. We hid this in his suitcase, so he could open it up while he was away. :) I wanted to have them stanp their pawprints, but was afraid of the ink being toxic to them. Does anyone know of any ink that's ok to use for this purpose? If so, please leave a comment. I would greatly appreciate it.

This next card came from paper I wanted to use, but I wasn't sure if I wanted to give it as a birthday card or another card, so I left it generic & will personalize when I am ready to send it. (not sure why my scanner is cutting off the right edge of the card.....sorry about that)

This next one came about, because I had no idea what I was going to do with this set of stickers. So I made a birthday card. (again, scanner cut off the right edge of the card)
