This week over at Heart 2 Heart the assignment was to make something using your favorite things. For me that changes pretty rapidly, but right now I'm totally loving this woodgrain Dakota paper that I hoarded. I'm also pretty much always in love with all things Glitter, so the new green Glitter paper and glitter glitz gel are definitely favs. I have been adding stitching around the edges of everything lately (faux or real, which I do my hand).
I also truly love a good blog challenge, so this week I used this sketch from Freshly Made sketches. Knowing I wanted to keep this card crisp and clean for Freshly Made, I went searching for some CAS inspiration at CASology, where the cue card this week is SILHOUETTE. I knew that next month's SOTM had some great silhouette images in it, which is perfect since I needed to do a SOTM card for my team ladies too. And since that was a holiday set, I knew what colors to use from the Merry Monday Christmas Card Challenge. I'm also linking up to the Paper Issues Put some Twine on It Challenge. Sweet serendipity!
I hope you'll pop over to Heart 2 Heart and share a project made with some of your favorite things!
What a cute card! I love that stamp! Your woodgrain background is fabulous too!
ReplyDeleteDarling card! I too LOVE the Dakota wood grain paper! I'm hoarding a bulk paper pack and it looks so neat with either the pastels or really, anything! Wish it would be a standard that CTMH would ALWAYS carry! I also am loving the Oct. SOTM and can hardly wait to get it... me being Swedish and all!
