4 Crafty Chicks Challenge #30 - Eyelets!

Happy Thursday PEEPS! It's my turn this week to play "Hostess-With-The-Mostess" over at 4 Crafty Chicks and I decided to throw out a challenge using EYELETS! They have been forgotten about in my crafting stash, that much is true....I headed in search of a color combo and came across this very "spring inspiring" combo from Inkspirations Color Challenge Blog:

The Mojo Monday sketch challenge this week worked perfectly for my stamp set that I wanted to use:

Stamps: Easter Blossoms, Best Yet; Paper: Whisper White, Early Espresso, Regal Rose, Daffodil Delight, Daffodil Delight DP; Ink: Early Espresso; Accessories: EE marker, rose eyelets, crop-a-dile, circle punches, scallop circle punch, finial press embossing folder, daffodil ribbon, eyelet border punch, dimensionals

With all this snow that's been falling the past few days, I am REALLY looking forward to spring getting here - this card helped perk up my mood a bit - hope it does for you too! Be sure to check out the other creations that Leanne, Melissa and Tamie created...I know they will lighten your mood too! :)

Thanks for stopping in this morning. Be sure to link up your creation (using eyelets) to the 4 Crafty Chicks website before Tuesday, March 29th at midnight MST!! Happy stamping!!

In Stitches at 4 Crafty Chicks

Good morning! Leanne is our "hostess-with-the-mostess" this week over at 4 Crafty Chicks and her challenge to you is "STITCHING" .... now that can be hand stitching, sewing machine, or faux stitching on your projects. For my card, I was asked to make a "western" Anniversary card for a customer so stitching was the perfect addition to my card :) I got my sketch from Inkspirations Challenge Blog:

Stamps: Verve; Paper: Very Vanilla, Early Espresso, More Mustard, unknown DP; Ink: Early Espresso; Accessories: sewing machine, brads, pearls, dimensionals

Here are the other girls blogs to see their wonderful "stitching" creations:

Leanne - Banking on Crafts

Melissa - My Paper Obsession

Tamie - Paper Infusions and More

Thank you for stopping in this morning :) My family and I are heading out to Orlando, Florida this Friday for 2 weeks, so I will be pre-scheduling all my posts while I'm away. I hope all goes well! I cannot *wait* to see everyone's creations when I get home...happy crafting and I sure hope the weather smartens up for y'all...I am looking forward to some HEAT :)

See you in a couple weeks :)
