Just goofin' around!!



Just working on a couple of challenges before I go to work today!! I love mornings!!


Something old,

Something new,

Something borrowed,

Something blue! That is the challenge this week at the Daring Cardmakers Blog. You have to use all those things. My old is the old brooch I used to wear about 20 years ago, I just took the pin off the back. My new is the strip of Chatterbox rub on along the bottom, I thought it went very well with the Crate paper. Something borrowed are the flower punches I borrowed off a card someone had sent me, (sorry, I know that's a terrible thing to do, but they just went to well with this paper) I think the flowers are a little too busy to go along with that paper, but it's all that I had to work with. And the something blue, of course, is the blue ribbon. Fun challenge, and what a challenge it was, took me a while!!


The other card is for the Sketch This challenge this week, #16. I used the brand new Creative Imaginations papers I just bought at my LSS, if they weren't closing out in two weeks I probably never would've bought it ( I think I am in panic mode) but I am glad I did, I like the way this card turned out. And that gorgeous ribbon I got in a ribbon swap a while back matches it perfectly.

I love the flower you've made for the DCM card, and all those papers and ribbons look like they were made for each other
