My Favorite Things - Contemporary Challenge




My Favorite Things stamping company had a challenge this week whose theme was contemporary. I decided to use the Digital Girl for the main stamp and the saying from the Who's that E Girl stamp set because not only did I make the card for the challenge, but I made the card to reveal myself as someone's secret sister in a card kit swap this month. The two projects merged into one made it more interesting. I used Close to My Heart designer paper, SU ribbon, SU Regal Rose ink and SU Brocade Blue ink, pop up dots, SU watercolor pencils, Primsa Watercolor pencils and my blender pen. I hope my secret sister enjoys the card!

Stephanie's Birthday Card

My good friend, Stephanie, had a birthday in October and I made her this card using my Sugar Nellie Stamp. I probably bought this stamp over a year ago and found it hiding in all my craft supplies when I re-organized my craft room. I used stickles, chalk, water color pencils, designer paper and fun flock for the flowers. The saying is Growing Old is Mandatory but Growing up is Optional. We have to be grown up sometimes, but our crafts take us back to being young!
