So here is a little project I worked on last weekend.  My sister’s friend is expecting a baby and they don’t know what they are having so it needed to stay neutral.  The nursery is done in mint greens and browns so that is where the inspiration for the colors came from.   Her baby shower was yesterday and this was part of the gift for her.   All the cs is from HL in there single sheet selections.  The brown is textured cs.  The mint green I embossed with vanilla ZING! embossing powder.  The dots are from MS clear backgrounds set (can you tell I like this stamp :).  The giraffe is from imaginisce and was colored with chalks.  I cut the circles using my creative memories circle cutting system.  The ribbons are by the paper studio, they came from Hobby Lobby too.  The sentiment has no company name on it.  I picked it up years ago at my local Scrapbook store when they were having a stamp swap.  The box I made for the cards only uses one piece of 12×12 paper.  The box holds 8 cards and 8 matching envelopes.  I used magnets for the closure on the box.  Thanks for looking.

Good afternoon everyone, today I have a card that covers three challenges.  I used Sweet Sundays sketch (sssc36).  The Belli challenge at Pile It On is to make a card with a Halloween theme.  At at SCS Friday’s LSC238 challenge was to use spooky colors on your card.  I know I said I was going to make birthday cards for the challenges, but I couldn’t resist making this card for these three challenges.  I fixed my comment box so now anyone can leave a comment.  I’d like to hear what you think.  Have a great Sunday.

There’s a bit of a shadow on the picture…we have have cloudy skies here today

Supplies:  spooky dots from the Paper Studio, Trick or Treat fashion pack colors from the Paper company, ghosts and goblins sentiment and the ghost image are from Katie &co. for studio g by Hampton arts.  I just love their $1 stamps when Michael’s get s them in.  A pop dot for the ghost, K&Company wackytac for adhesive.  I used my 2 5/16 scallop punch from the paper studio and my 2 1/8 in square punch from Marvy Uchida.  I used jet black ink from Stazon.
