Tag card

Our pastor invited us over for lunch after church yesterday, so I made this Thank-you note for him and his wife. I used the colors from Cr84Fn color challenge, which were bright pink, tan, and neutral. I made that fit with Dynamic Duos because their colors were Crumb Cake (tan) and choose-your-own color. I chose pink! I used Cotton Candy, Bamboo, and White Daisy as my neutral. The challenge at Crazy4Challenges was to make a tag, so I made this tag card with my Cricut Art Philosophy cartridge. The sketch is RetroSketches (rotated and slightly altered).



Materials used:
Paper: White Daisy, Bamboo, and Cotton Candy cardstock
Stamps: Wonderland WOTG
Ink: Cotton Candy
Other: AP Cricut Cartridge, Baker's Twine Paradise Assortment

Mayberry card

I dug out my Mayberry kit to use up some scraps for this one. The challenge was paper piecing from the Ribbon Carousel, and the sketch was from Sweet Sunday Sketch. I thought the little diamonds on one of the B&T's would be perfect to paper piece into the stitched flower from Just for You. I like the way it turned out.
Materials used:
Paper: Mayberry; Colonial White Smoothie, and Cocoa cardstock
Stamps: Just for You
Ink: Cocoa
Other: Colonial White ribbon
