Challenge #23 at CTO


Hello all and happy Tuesday!!! I made a card to play along with my fellow DT members over at Celebrate the Occasion. It was Team 1's turn to host the challenge and since I'm on Team 2 I'm not designing, but I wanted to play along and support them. The challenge is to make something using the colors blue and white. I didn't have a lot of time to play since I am now back to work, but I thought this turned out kind of cute. And the best part, it was made with all scraps from my stash! Here's my recipe:


DCWV pattern paper
Recollection, The Paper Company, and Stampin' Up cardstock
Martha Stewart Paper and Stampin' Up Paper Punches
My Creative Time sentiment stamp
Stampendous Embossing Powder
Nail Heads from Walmart
Sakura White Gelly Roll Pen

Thanks for stopping by, and remember to head over to CTO and join in the fun!
