I haven't really been finding nearly enough time to sit & craft and it was nice to have a chance to tidy up a little, too. Every time I'm at my desk I get a little panicked by the mess. Clearly, if I just took a few minutes each time I wouldn't have this problem, but alas...Taking more than a little inspiration from my super talented friend Andrea (who aptly creates true beauty for each of these challenges), I used the JUGS Saturday Sketch #96 and CR84FN Color Challenge #35.
This was such a fun sketch and I wanted to try a little something new so I pulled out some unlvoed eyelets and string to play. I used my favorite set for Anniversary cards - Love Story - as well as the classy label stamp from Love Notes and Die. Bountiful Backgrounds made an appearance, too.
While I had these stamps out, I decided to make a few other cards...which I'll be sharing in some upcoming posts.
Awesome! Love the eyelets (my eyelets are truly the neglected embellie in my stash!) and the string gives them a fresh look! So creative:) Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteLove how yo used the sketch, Tanis, and the threading through the eyelet is brilliant :) Great card.
ReplyDeleteOh Tanny! This is positively BREATH TAKING!!! WOW! LOVE both your take on the JUGS sketch and the CR84FN colors!!! The embossed background is FABULOUS and the way you ran the string through the eyelet is lovely!!! The sentiment die cut is gorgeous - I have to get out my Verve die and stamp soon - thanks for the inspiration! Thank you for your kind words friend and for playing along with two of my fav challenges *wink* :)
