Paper Craft Crew 143

HELLO! Yup, it’s Wednesday already, the week is moving along at a nice pace! Work was pretty quiet again yesterday, not complaining! It was warm again here too just not as much sun as yesterday. When I got home last night I didn’t know what I wanted to do! I have so many crafty things that try to get out of my head but I just don’t have enough time! LOL! So last night I thought I would see if I could make a tag. After taking the Tags class at Scrap-A-Latte I thought that it was a fun decorative item to make. I’m plotting some kind of display for them as I’m also planning to make more! So that is just what I did last night. I played with some Tim Holtz stuff! I’ll list the products that I used at the very end of the post, in the mean time here is the tag…

I had a lot of fun putting it together and love the colors! Hope that you like it too!

As is the case on Wednesday’s I’m over on the Paper Craft Crew for this week’s sketch challenge…

PCCCS143 DT Sketch 5-06-2015

I have had a bunch of Simon Says Stamp stuff that I have been wanting to play with so that’s what I used for today’s card. My card base today is Neenah Solar White 110lb which makes for an awesome card base! I stamped a piece of Neenah Solar White 80lb with the border stamp from the Simon Says Stamp Sending Happy Thoughts Photopolymer Stamp Set in Real Red Ink. The envelopes and hello are also from that set and are stamped in Tempting Turquoise. I used the 3/4″ Circle Punch for the hello and my Paper Snips for the envelopes. Across the bottom of the white panel is a piece of Real Red and across the top of that is some PinkFresh Studios Red and Blue Ombre Airmail Washi Tape. I adhered the panel to some Fun Foam and then to the card base. Some Neenah Solar White 80lb is stamped with the dots from the Simon Says Stamp Nautical Borders Photopolymer Stamp Set in Tempting Turquoise and backed with Real Red. It is also adhered to the card with some Fun Foam in the middle. I used the 1″ Circle Punch to punch out a piece of Brushed Gold Card Stock and slid it behind the panel. The hello and envelopes are them mounted to the card with some Foam Tape. I love that Airmail Washi Tape and the nice bright colors on the card! I hope that you enjoyed my card for this week’s Paper Craft Crew sketch challenge. You can head on over to the blog and see what the rest of the Design Team has done with the sketch! I also hope that you enjoyed my tag! Thank you so much for stopping by and I wish you all a very happy Wednesday! 🙂
