Kristine’s Blog Candy

May 17, 2008 by mar1ene

The lovely and very talented Kristine has a yummie blog candy up at the moment.. She would like you to make a project inspired by the paper bag card she made, and Wow is it gorgeous and inspiring!

I’ve made paperbag albums before, but never a card.. so definately wanted to give the challenge a go and this is my result.

The inside pages look like this, you can click the picture for a better view:

There is also a big tag that can be pulled out and add more messages or photo’s.

I also want to enter this for this weeks Saturday Workout challenge blog where the theme is ‘Chalk it, Baby’ and I have used lots of fluid chalks for stamping (the circle journaling block) and edge distressing.

Other items used for this card (lots and lots!!)

Sarah Kay stamp from Papirloftet coloured with distress inks
Personal Impressions frame stamp
Fluid Chalks
DP from Prima Marketing Inc
Brads, Ribbon, paper bag and prima flowers all from latest Scrapagogo kit
PC mini sewing machine for stitching
Charms and metal flower paperclip from stash
Rub-ons from poundshop
Pearl domed brads from dovecraft

==========================================================

I’ll leave you with a little pic of how well DJ is settling in, not surprising.. as he got his ‘big brother’ to look after him.. lol

Also received my first Sugar Nellie DT stamps… and they are sooo yummie!! They have been mounted and stamped out, so I’m ready to get cracking!!!

have a fabulous weekend all!

Oh wow Marlene this is truly awesome it must have taken you ages it is sooo beautiful. Now onto DJ every time I see a photo of this little darling my resolve not to have another dog at the moment begins to weaken it doesn’t help that one of our neighbours also has a cocker puppy. They are just too cute!!! Sue :o)
