Don't Forget... Challenge!


So I admit it.... I am a serious addict when it comes to Cuddlebug embossing folders and edge punches! I absolutely LOVE using them on my cards.

Today I was cruising the blogs I follow and the Cuttlebug Challenges blog had an awesome challenge... to use your embossing folders and some edge punches... PERFECT!

So I sat down to my desk and these are the 2 cards I created using the challenge: (the elephant images are hand cut using an image I found on the net and machine stitched)

Don't Forget

supplies: stamp: myStamp BOX (small greetings); PP: BasicGrey; CS: Bazzill, Prism; punches: Martha Stewart, EK Success; Cuttlebug Embossing Folders: "Textile Texture", "Swiss Dot"; ink: Colorbox; ribbon: Offray; other: thread.

"Elephant Shoes"

supplies: PP: BasicGrey; CS: Bazzill, Prism; punches: Fiskars; Cuttlebug Embossing Folders: "Heart Blocks", "Argyle"; ribbon: American Crafts; flower: Prima; brad: Making Memories; other: thread, plastic beads.

Dont't forget about my March blog candy of a FREE set of myStamp BOX stamps! Check out the details here. Good luck!

Love the cards, especially the elephant! The colors, the textures and the addition of the paper lace set off everything so well!
