Double Challenge for me today!!


Good Morning Everyone!! I needed a card for this evening for my son's little buddy for his birthday. He LOVES dinosaurs and he is turning 7 so I wanted something not too babyish!! hehe!! Kids are so funny!! My card today is for the Treehouse Stamps Thursday Challenge, THT004, which was to use some sort of texture. Please join the fun, come visit OUR BLOG. I also did today's Ways to Use it challenge, WT225, over at Splitcoast Stampers. It was to use cardboard. I decided to punch a circle out of cardboard...ooo now that was tricky, I had to trim it up cause my punch didn't like it much. I then ran it through the cuttlebug and inked the edges. Thanks for stopping by!! Have a great Thursday!!!
Here's the recipe
Stamped Setiment in Chocolate Chip Ink
I colored him with copics and cut him out and popped him up
Old Olive Cardstock
Very Vanilla Cardstock
Archaic Designer Paper from Basic Grey
Basic Grey Buttons
Basi Grey Fibers
SU Twine
Marvy Scallop Circle Punch
SU Scallop Edge Punch
Cardboard Cut with Marvy Circle Punch
Cuttlebug Embossing Folder
SU Scallop Oval Punch
Lots of Pop Dots
