This week Emma's challenge is to make a project with a sports theme. I do not have the sports mania cartridge so I decided to use the skiis from Everyday Paper Dolls. I wanted to use some paper from the 3 new DCWV holiday paper pads I just bought (couldn't decide which one, so I bought all three!).


Materials:

DCWV holiday paper pads-The homemade Christmas stack & The Combination Christmas Stack

Crop-a-dile

Irock and green gems

red brads

Kraft cardstock

green twine

Sentiment-Papertrey Ink Signature Christmas Sentiments


Have a great day!!!

Throwback Thursday Challenge #104 Plus a card by my sweet little Isabel!




This weeks Challenge from Emma was to make a Shaped card from the Creative Critters Cartridge and use the color orange in it. I loved making this card. The idea came to me in a flash and it went together so easily. I used the Gift bag cut from the cart and welded it into a shaped card. I used 2 strips of red tape and applied two rows of ribbon ruffling it as I went.


Materials:


Orange Zest cardstock and Sentiment from Papertrey Ink


Polka Dot paper from a MMI stack


Orange satin ribbon from the Dollar Store!


Black Diamond Stickles


The second picture is a card my 7 Year old Daughter made. I am so proud of her!
