Try Stampin on Tuesday #149

Happy New Years Eve everyone.

Today I am sharing a card for Try Stampin on Tuesday.

Ringing in the New Year later and my resolution for this

year is to participate in my challenges outside of my

design teams. So, this is an early start to that.. Here is 

the sketch that they have proivided for us to use..

I must say I really love this..

Along with using this sketch they added a twist and

that was to use some bling..

My card is 5 1/2 X 6. I dug into my scrap bend and

found these two piece of paper that went very well

together. My flower is made with a Spellbinders Shapeablities

Die D-Lite called Blooms Three, and the bling is from Jolene's.

 The Sentiment is a stamp

that I purchased at my local craft store for a $1.00. Don't you

just love deals like that. And finally, my center border is

cut from a Martha Stewart punch.

As I started before I am entering this card over at.

Anything Goes

Hey everyone, today I am going to share with you an altered

box that I got of Goodwill this week-end. It is now beautiful

box that holds cards that  I am giving as a birthday gift. I must

admit that I don't usally do altered art, but this was fun..

So with out further a do, here it is.

Here is what my box looks like before I altered it..

Here it is with the first layer of paper from K & C.

Here I have added my lace and my K & C black pearl swirls

To finish it off I added hand made flowers with pearl sprigs and

my Blue butterfly.  This is a top view.

And here it all completed.. I hope you enjoyed my project today
