RECIPE BELOW - 

ALL THE INGREDIENTS NEED TO BE ON YOUR CARD

This is the recipe to follow. All of the ingredients need to be in your card..

Crafty ribbons   is our sponsor

I decided to make a card like the one on the 1st.. Since I knew how to do it I just went with what I knew..  I used Amy Tangerine designer paper and added some washi tape to the front and the My Favorite Things sentiment and also added the bling and MFT chicks.. The inside of the card after I used a Simon Says die to create the circle. The MFT images are all water colored using Mission Gold paints. I added some more Amy Tangerine dp and added the MFT images to another strip of Washi tape. I added the Pretty Pink Posh balloons and a twine bow.

Hello

It's time for a new challenge over at

Alphabet challenge 

Our letter this challenge is

M - 

MOTIVATIONAL / ENCOURAGING SENTIMENT

For my card I used some Amy Tangerine papers. I stamped the Annette Allen Watkins sentiment on the flower paper and then I stamped again on some Stampin up vellum. I created the frame with Stampin up card stock and My Favorite Things dies. I added the vellum to the back then laid it on the stamped floral. I had hoped that the sentiment would be darker doing it this way. I think it worked. I then used Spellbinder banner die and more Amy Tangerine paper and added to the bottom of the sentiment piece.

I added to some Amy Tangerine paper and a strip of some other designer paper down the center.  I have this Amy Tangerine pad on my stool that I never sit in and I just love her papers in it so been using them a lot lately. It's a big 12x12 pad.  I stamped and heat embossed the Simon says sentiment and using some banner dies added them to the card. I used My Favorite Things grass die and a scrap just to finish the bottom of the card.
