This week Chrissie & Mandi at
"Less Is More" challenged us to a one layer card and stripes.....
I had fun with this one...and the idea's just kept coming...
that being said...I made 3 cards.....
the first is my elephant birthday card......
the stripes are from a SU set called "So Happy"....they reminded me of a circus tent....
so that is how the elephant came into mind....
.the stamp is one of the $1 Michael's stamps I seem to be "collecting" lately.....
I added stickles to the balloons to give the card a bit of "bling"....
the sentiment is a Hero Arts...
the second card is using a new Paper Studio embossing folder I just bought....
Hobbylobby had them for 40% off...so for $3 I couldn't resist.....
the folder is actually a "notebook paper"...but I just left some of it off.....
it reminded of a white picket fence.....
and what is a fence without a cat walking along it...right??
this is just a little thank you card using an old 1991 stamp from Marks of Distinction....
the sentiment is from SU.....
My last card is using those Martha Stewart craft stencils I had a post on earlier......
I looked at this one as a "stripe" of leaves.....the flower was just overstamped and it is also a $1 stamp from Michael's...
the sentiment is from Flourishes....
the ink I used is from SU..Certainly Celery~Old Olive and my new favorite Poppy Parade...
I think this is all from me for this challenge...thanks for looking!!!
