It's All About the Shoes...

Heads up - picture heavy post!

I love my crafting items.  I enjoy collecting them, organizing them, once in a while I even use them!!!

OWH sketch, Fashion Statements, fun Paper Studio Mint to be Fab papers, stash jewels for knobs and feet. 

 

Here is the armoire doors open to show the fab shoes colored in silver, black, mint, and pink. 

 

The inside reflects the front.  Sharing this with the Shopping Our Stash It's All About the Shoes Challenge, Creative with Stamps #19 - Shoes, and Simply Create Too - Favorite Color Combo (black and pink).   Fun card - I may need to make a few of these with different color combos.  I mean, who doesn't love shoes?!?!?  Come join us for the Words 2 Craft By Autumn Flowers challenge!!!

A Big B!

The Fusion challenge looks like this:

 

Here's my version:

 I love this payout, and the colors were cool, too!  B for BDay or Bobbi, whatever you decide :)!  Paper Studio teal paper layered on a grey card base.  Same grey paper used in the horizontal element and the  monogram layering.  Gold letter cut in gold foil with my Zing.  Happy dance!!

What's the Word?

OK.  Epic fail on this one.  I made the BEST card - then realized I didn't follow the Shopping Our Stash instructions correctly.  My sentiment was the focal point, but it was stamped, not die cut.  Round 2 - nailed it!!

 

Love the Paper Studio foiled pineapple/hospitality paper, the die cut from Simon Say is cut once in pink, and offset with the gold.  Lots of time to join us at Words 2 Craft By's Just Keep Swimming challenge!!!
