Wacky Wednesday Challenge

Hi everyone.  I thought I would make another step card today and post it on my blog.  The Challenge is Wacky Wednesday Challenge over at More than favors, Here.   First I must apologize.  The concept for this card is not original to me.  Although I have made them before, I have also seen one on a blog recently.  I don't know who made it so I can't give credit.  Sorry.  Wacky Wednesday Challenge is a color challenge for brown, pink and green. 

The cardstock is all from Stampin Up.  The card is formed by placing my 5 1/2 by 8 1/2 piece of cardstock on my cricut mat.  Using my gypsy I inserted a top note shape from Gypsy Wanderings.  I moved it down on the mat so that only the top half would cut.  I think this makes the cutest card.  Bureau scarf (do people still use those?) is punched with Martha Stewart's punch and sentiment is computer generated.  Cute huh? 

There are other ideas I can  think of for using this kind of card.  I think the next one may include something warm and cozy..........................hmmm what could that be?

Well that's all for now.  See you later..........play nice

Terrific Tuesday Challenge

Hi  Everyone.  I am back today with a card for the Terrific Tuesday Challenge with Scrappy Moms.  See it HERE.  I made this card for my favorite guy.  The card is a little non-traditional in color but who says everything must be pink or red?  I have to tell you that by the time we get through Christmas, New Years, and Valentine's Day I am ready to use anything EXCEPT pink or red.  Bring on St. Patrick's green!!   I think the card came out pretty cute.  What do you think?

The cardstock is from Stampin Up Retired colors.  the DSP is from last year's K & Company 8.5 designer pad.

I don't have the sweethearts cartridge but I believe there is a heart and a key on it.  I got this heart from Create A Critter cut at 2.56 and the key is from Gypsy Wanderings cut at 2.32.  The sentiment is an old stamp with no manufacturer listed.  I love making step cards.  Actually I love making any kind.  This post is late in the day because my muse was sleeping...............or something.  I added a paper doily behind the heart, some bling to the heart along with gel pen stitching.  The key has silver glitter to give it more of a metallic look.

Well that's all for now. 

Bye for now........play nice
