Friendship

This card is for the MOJO Monday sketch 106, I thought it was a fun sketch and decided to play along! The dp paper is from Memory Box, the leaves are a Quickutz die. The sentiment is stamped in PTI Orange Zest and is from the Gina K Happy Harvest set. I also used a McGill fern punch, button, scrappers floss, and Hanna silk ribbon from The Paper Source. Thanks for taking a peek!

EEEK!

I made this card for the Inspiration challenge on SCS. The challenge site this week was the Pajama Squid, and it has some of the cutest children's clothes., I enjoyed browsing through all the adorable items! I was inspired by the Lucie Pinaforte Black Dress .

The paper I used is Making Memories Spellbound Script, Pumpkin Pie, and black. The spider web is a Quickutz Die, and the cute spider is a Pez-A Doodle skittle. The EEEk is a Martha Stewart Punch. I also used the MOJO Monday 105 sketch. Thanks for taking a peek!

Happy Holidays!

I forgot to post my Pez-A- Doodle card this morning! I made this delightful holiday card for the ways to use it challenge on SCS, the challenge was to do something out of your comfort zone. I am the worst embosser, especially with white embossing powder, those darn flakes always seem to show up on dark cardstock! I think it took me ten tries before I finally got this image to look half way decent! I used the Pinecone Scroll stamp set and embossed with Ranger seafoam white. The paper is a blue metallic from The Paper Company and the ribbon is May Arts white satin.
