I got some new paper that I LOVE!!!! MME Mary, Mary Quite Contrary. Isn't it purdy???? I have to say that over at DCRU they sell a coordinating pack of Prism paper. Is that not GENIUS! Love it!
I used the Tuesday Trigger Sketch over at Moxie Fab for my inspiration. Lots of FABULOUS sketches to try out this week over there. I created my own string flower in the corner. Wish I had used a different button with a bit more pop. Subtle can be good though. I am entering this into several challenges. EBTKS is about using string. Ok, mine is twine...they're still the same I think. In the corner I have also used the twine to add a stitch. This week's CAS challenge 61 is to just use a sentiment. This also falls into the category of Nature over at The Pink Elephant.
Over at Hope Stamps Eternal Cupcake Inspiration 53 it's all about fun, flowery cupcakes. Check out the photo:
And one of my favorite challenge blogs, Stamptacular Sunday Challenge is all about Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice. This is my first time participating as a NON DT member. Bittersweet. I think this is a great card to give to my beautiful daughter. She will be going to Middle School next year and I'm already trying to instill that being HER is the best person she can be. I fully remember Middle School...UGH! So this is going in my stash to give to her on a "rainy day."
Hope you are all having a great one. I will have a few pictures up here tomorrow of my "not so clean" craft room. See you then!
What's In It?
