Welcome back everyone! I'm so glad you had a few minutes to stop by and take a peek at this week's 4 Crafty Chicks challenge. Our hostess with the mostest this week is Leanne and she is asking us to make a project with a travel theme.
I must admit that I don't own many stamps that would help me out with this challenge. I know there are many ways to interpret this theme but I had a hard time figuring out where to begin. I thought I might as well start with the paper since I didn't have a color challenge to use and found a wonderful paper pack (Joy Ride by Cosmo Cricket) in my stash that had never been opened...do I hear a collective *gasp* from the peanut gallery??? :) It was absolutely PERFECT for this theme.
I knew I had a few travel-themed rub-ons and embellishments *somewhere* that I bought a few years ago...I just had to find them. Fortunately, I found them quite easily and set off in search of a sketch. Peggy and the gals over at Paperworks Co. have a fun one this week:
How's this for a card with NO INK and NO STAMPING?
Paper: Very Vanilla, Early Espresso, Tangerine Tango, Sage Shadow, Joy Ride DSP (Cosmo Cricket) Accessories: Paper piercer, Nestabilities, Tangerine Tango striped grosgrain ribbon, twine, metal suitcase charm, rub-on (sentiment), Square Lattice embossing folder, Seeing Spots embossing folder
Thanks for stopping by today - please pop over to check out the rest of the Chicks' creations and leave them some love. We'd love to have you join us this week and remember that you don't *have* to make a card. You could do a scrapbook page, an altered item ... the possibilities are endless. :) Have fun!
