Friday Mashup # 3

Oops, I'm a little behind this week. Seems that way all the time these days. Once the weather warms up my days and nights seem to run together. I think all the sunlight allows me to stay super busy. Today's card is my take on this weeks Friday Mashup challange. I made some cards last week for an upcoming swap (I will show you those tomorrow) and I really loved how they came out so I thought I would try the same design just in B&W for this challange. I have always loved the joy fold card and this one is no different really except for the dimensions. For this challange it had to be square so the card is 4 1/4 x 4 1/4. Thanks for peeking in today!


Products:
Cardstock: whisper white, basic black
Ink: basic black, versa mark
Tools: white and black embossing powders, sponge, brad, dimensionals

I thought would chime in on  this challange, just to change it up and try something new. It keeps the creativity flowing at least. I always want to make things for my boys for the holidays and I worry that they will think things I make are hokie. I try to man it down and not add too much bling, and I usually get compliments like: "wow you made this?" or "this is pretty cool!' (I will take those statements as compliments anyway :0) So I though a couple of small Easter baskets wouldn't be too over the top, after all they are still my babies and I want to do something special for them for every holiday. Thanks for peeking in today!

Friday Mashup # 37

This weeks card was a toughy! I have almost no animal stamps, and the ones I do have; well I just wasnt feeling it. So I went with punch art instead. I think he turned out cute! And I have never been to a zoo that didnt have penquins so I thought he would be a perfect fit for this weeks challange. If you havent played with us at friday mashup swing over and check them out.
