Good Monday morning, Friends! Well, we will be on our way home this morning. What a most wonderful weekend it was! We will have the car loaded up with new purchases (mostly Becky's - lol!). I am anxious to start some new wool appliqué projects soon, too!
Today's card was inspired by a challenge at Less is More. The challenge was to use up scraps to make a card (by the way, this was last week's challenge). The only thing that was not a scrap was the card base of Very Vanilla. So on top of my card base I attached three strips of designer paper from the Everyday Enchantment pack. These are varied in length and width and then flagged on the end. I just put adhesive in the middle of each strip and then sort of curved the ends off the card. Then I took a scrap of Very Vanilla and stamped the 'Hello' from Elementary Elegance in Soft Suede. I rounded one corner of this strip and popped it up onto the card. Then I took a scrap of Peach Parfait and ran it through the Big Shot with the Beautiful Wings embosslit. I added a mini brad before adhering it to the Very Vanilla strip. And there you have it! A super simple card using scraps! Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!

Good morning, Friends! What a fabulous looking weekend it is around here! Is it really the middle of winter? A lot of the plants are a little confused, too! I won't complain too much (after the last two winters we have had around here) as long as the mountains get tons of snow! That's where we need it the most! But I do hope it rains around here some time...
Today's card is from a challenge that I haven't played along with, yet. I love to visit their blog and look at what they have going on but I haven't really every played along. And it looks like I won't get to play along with this one either as the deadline as passed. But I loved the challenge! The challenge blog is "Less is More". Great name, huh!! They believe in keeping things very clean and very simple. Love it! And I love how my card turned out, too! I took a strip of Whisper White and used my Full Heart punch to punch a heart. Then I too a piece of the Twitterpated designer paper and glued it to the front of a whisper White card base. The strip with the punched heart is popped up over that. Then I stamped the greeting from Grateful Greetings in Riding Hood Red. As a finishing touch I added a heart that was cut with the Fashionable Hearts embosslit with a rhinestone. Thanks for stopping by and have a super day!
