Here it is day six and card six. Today I'm putting two challenges together. I'm creating a card with
the friday mashup and paper lovin' gals. Let's see, Friday Mashup wants to mashup pastels with a birthday card and Paper lovin' gals have a photo and wants to know what you can pull out of it.
I just thought these two challenges just fit together so well. I have a bird stamp from The Angel company that would be perfect. Only I decided to go for spring instead of winter. Yesterday I went though my stampin area and decided to get rid of some stuff. Starting with what was dusty... First thing into the box was my pastels. I'm not good with chalks and I can't remember the last time I got them out. Well guess what I did this morning? I dug to the bottom of that box and got the chalks back out.And now they are back on the shelf where they started. It's so hard to part with your stuff, isn't it? So any way here's my card.
The supplies I'm using are mostly Stampin Up:
Papers: Cajun Craze, Old Olive, Baja Breeze, Pink Pirquette, and water color paper
Inks: Cajun craze
Stamps: Woodgrain Background, Simply soft, On Your Birthday, and Nature Things ( The Angel Company)
Accessories: Punches, Cuddlebug folder, and Pastel Chalks.
I hope you like my card and I hope you'll stop tomorrow to see whats next.
Bye Bye and Happy stamping
