90-Minute Scramble

Hi there!

Today, over in the Hero Arts Flickr group, Martha hosted the 19th, 90-Minute scramble. It was one of the best yet with so many entries and an awesome theme! She asked us to make a card that had at least one side without a straight edge. But that's not all. Oh, no. . . .she also wanted us to use all of our favorites. Our favorite Hero Arts stamp(s) our favorite colors, our favorite embellishments and our favorite technique! I must say, it was a blast grabbing all my favorite things and creating at a feverish pace!

As most of you will guess, I chose pink and green. I used two of my fave stamps from Hero Arts, the Hydrangea and La Letter. I remember loving the Background Layered Technique that Shari showed us on the Hero Arts blog back in May and knew I wanted to use that too. I love Hero Arts pearls, so that was an easy choice for my embellies. The only thing I had to decide on was an edge. I cut the Hydrangea so that a small portion of it would be hanging off the edge.



If you've never participated in a 90-Minute Scramble, you must give it a try! They are so fun and really get your juices flowing! Here is the master schedule. They usually have one, every two weeks.

Thanks for coming by and Happy weekend! :)

Another Card for Camp, Week 2

Hi there!

A really quick post today with an equally quick (and simple) card. The Hero Arts Friend Definition is stamped on the card base. I used the colors for Card Camp, week 2, die cut some felt, punched out some flowers and added an SRM sticker for the sentiment. Easy Peasy!

I must thank Virginia for the sticker! She sent me quite a few and they are so perfect for adding a sentiment onto felt! Thanks again, V!
