And my project for the week...

The card measures 4.25 x 5.5 inches. For my base I selected a black card stock with an ecru matting. The DP is from My Mind's Eye Sunshine Collection!  I took two coordinating patterns and nestled them side by side on the ecru matting.  I distressed each layer with a distressing tool and inked the edges lightly.  Becca's Peg Bow Maker made easy work of this satin bow!  I added a fun embellie by Recollections and a crochet button with blossoms in the corner.  Very simple and super fun! 

Thanks for popping in!  Hope you have a great week!

And aren't we glad?  Thanks so much for stopping by today.  I want to share a card that I created using some "non-traditional" colors...  at least for me anyway!  I found some papers by Kaisercraft and decided to play.  The collection is called Seaside and with that in mind I pulled out a new Provocraft embossing folder (Hawaiian Shirt) and added some Magnum PI to the case...  :-)



I told ya it was busy! lol... This card has more orange, yellow and aqua than I EVER work with! The lace is a bargain rack find at Michaels and I used standard Circle and Petite Scalloped Spellbinder dies for the sentiment. The sentiment is from Our Daily Bread Design's The Sea set. Very appropriate this time of year... Thanks for stopping in! I will spend the rest of the day trying to get the Magnum PI theme song out of my head! Blessings!!

WT378 ~ The Sea ~

Welcome! So glad you could stop by today. My dear friend and Our Daily Bread Design Team member, Sabrina sent me a lovely package recently. Inside she carefully packed seam binding, blossoms, charms and chipboard. One of the treasures she sent was a metal pocket watch embellie from Michaels. That gift triggered this card...



My base is kraft card stock with a layer of caribbean blue paper. I selected designer paper by K & Company. I distressed the edges with a distressing tool and added distress ink to all sides. I then crinkled it up, flattened it back out and glued it to the base. This weeks SCS Ways to Use It Challenge involves banners. So I stamped my sentiment (ODBD's The Sea set) on kraft paper and cut a banner. I couldn't resist adding some hemp twine and a bit of Flower Soft Ultrafine Sand in the corner of the watch for interest. Almost looks like it washed up on shore! Thanks for stopping in and until next time!
