Here we are back at Monday. I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! I'm on schedule with my The Cutting Cafe post this week. it was another one that was a little difficult for me. We were asked to work with Chevrons. I've never used Chevrons in my crafting before but I was up for the challenge. I decided to use the Chevron cutting file and use it as a background on a card. While I'm not sure you can see it I embossed on the base chocolate chip layer with tiny hearts, too. I also had several challenges I wanted to enter this week so I'll describe those too.
So, beyond using chevrons on my card I wanted to use the sketch from The Sweet Stop this week so...I did! I also wanted to use a Sweet n Sassy Stamp to make a card for Todd...so I did. Isn't that image and sentiment cute? Another challenge that I wanted to join in on was using something tiny on your project from 365 Cards. I was supposed to use at least three something tinys so I think between all the dots and the little heart gems I did that, too.
The final challenge I wanted to join in on was also from 365 Cards but this one is to decorate the inside of your card with patterned paper and a sentiment. Easy schmesy for me 'cuz I almost always do that anyway!
I gotta be truthful. I started off not liking this card...AT ALL but in the end it is another one that I absolutely adore! I'm glad I hung with it and didn't throw it out!
Who has fun plans this week? More importantly who knows this is going to be a great Monday? I do because the Packers play the Seahawks in Seattle tonight and although we couldn't get tickets we are having a Monday Night Football party. It will be so fun!
So...go, have a wonderful day! See you soon!
