Monday Morning Challenge

Hello! It's another Monday and Bella Blvd. is challenging its designers and you to create a project using six of the border cut pieces! This can be quite a challenge to fit all six strips on an A2 size card, but here's what I came up with. 

(Buy Now $4 .99)

For this first card, I simply found six borders printed together from the Molly collection that I thought would make the perfect background for a girly girl kind of card. Flowers, cameras, polka dots, cupcakes, peace signs and stars make a super cool background, don't you think?

Next up...I got a little more creative this time around and used pennant and circle dies to cut out words and icons from the borders strips of the Classic Calendars collection for this 'love' card.

Whatever the day, month or season, love endures!

Monday Morning Challenge

Hello! How was your weekend? Saturday was internet appreciation day at our house...meaning we had no internet access so we got to experience just how dependent we are to being connected! lol 

For all you paper crafters who enjoy a challenge, you can take Bella Blvd's Monday morning challenge to use five colors from the Scattered Sprinkles collection on a project. With the smaller canvas of a greeting card, it's a little more tricky, but I managed with this dotted design.

I layered the 'Oreo Sprinkles' paper with vellum to give the center of the card grayish affect. Those fun wave die cuts are from Reverse Confetti's Doing the Wave.

For my next card I cut strips of Scattered Sprinkles paper to create a colorful background.

The 'Love You so Much' sentiment is from the Family Forever collection...showing you that Bella Blvd. collections mix and match perfectly! 

The crochet heart and grosgrain ribbon bow give this card a lot of yummy texture, don't you think?

How About a Crafty Challenge?

For those of you crafty folks who enjoy a good challenge, how about taking one from Bella Blvd. to mix and match several of your favorite collections?  I found it pretty fun and easy to do this with the new Max, Molly, Family Forever and Lucky Starz collections because Stephanie designs these lines to coordinate perfectly!
