Creative Crew "Gets Crafty"!

On the 15th of the month a group of cardmaking friends host a challenge and post our cards.  This month Barb hosted the challenge and she selected Gus & Gertie Get Crafty by Taylored Expressions.  Woohoo! We all love TE!



I tried to incorporate each side of the fun designer papers that Barb included with the kit. They're from Stampin' Up's Follow Your Art DSP pack.

The card front is ink blended with a polka dot stencil and "Cookie Monster" ink, both by TE.  

The sentiment is hand cut into a banner and lightly blended with the same ink.  The crafty tools on Gus' desk are colored with Olo markers.

I chose to bling, hahahaha.  Some turquoise gems from my stash are added.

Thanks Barb for a fantastic kit this round!  I had fun with it.

  4. You have made a sweet card with the kit, Darlene - and I am definitely in the bling 'camp', especially when it's as well done as on this card
