Today begins a new challenge at...
Shopping Our Stash // #SOS515 ...A "shopping your stash" challenge!! Our this theme for this current challenge is "put your best face forward"!! We want to see some human faces!! That is right...dig through your stash and find those stamp sets that include a face.
For my card I pulled out a Newton's Nook stamp set that is actually a Christmas set, but I used it for a birthday!! I have this chic wrapping up some birthday presents instead of Christmas presents. A true example of using your stash!! I also used an embossing folder that rarely gets used but was perfect for showcasing this chic.
We can't wait to see what you come up with for our new challenge that begins today!! Hop on over to our blog and check out the detail. We will also find some great inspiration from the rest of the design team that is sure to get your creative juices flowing.
Today's card was also inspired by 3 other challenges...
Festive Friday Challenge // #FF0152 ...An "inspo list" challenge!! From the insop list honoring FAMILY DAY, choose 3 of the 10 elements given to use on your card. For today's card I chose...twine, people, and texture!!

I guess you dug deep for that embossing folder, it's an oldie. Great when you can use a stamp set for double duty. Great card design.
ReplyDeleteI think that folder might have been the one that came with my very first embossing machine!! LOL
DeleteI guess great minds travel in the same "circles!" So pretty! Your image is cute and you have given it a lovely presentation!
