Thank You
Phew, it's Thursday already?! Wow! If you're out and about in blogland you probably know of The Color Throwdown, a great blog run by some fabulous crafters who issue a color challenge every week. Well last week's colors (CTD136) were Orange, Soft Sky and Kraft, some of my favs so how could I not play along?!
You know another thing that's popular right now? Chevrons! Their in the fashion world and the paper crafting world - sort of one of those looks that really never goes out style! There is a super fun chevron (or you could call it a zig zag) stamp in the Beyond Borders set from Mint Motif available at i {heart} papers. This was a super fast card but think how fast you could change the colors and whip up a bunch of these to suit every mood!
The woodgrain circle was made using What a Card and the sentiment is from Very Square Sentiments both from Mint Motif as well. I used the Circle Nestabilities and Big Scalloped Circle Nestabilities to die cute the panels and added some bling from Zva Creative on every other scallop - love the bling!! :)
Check out the New Items section at IHP, new Echo Park 6x6 pads (and some 12x12 kits) arrived yesterday - it's ok for me to say this now since my order is in and shipped already!! Woo hoo, Kate is awesome!! Have a great day!
