Multi-Challenge Card!
Today I finally entered some more challenges I've been wanting to participate in. I'm a little short on time lately so I decided/tried to make one card that would incorporate all the different challenges!
The challenges are:
- to use a button(s) (http://thecuttlebugspot.blogspot.com)
- to create a home-made flower (www.peachykeenstampschallenge.blogspot.com)
- to use the smiley cards cartridge (http://scrappymoms-stamps.blogspot.com)
- to use some ugly paper you have lying around (http://queenofmycraftroom.blogspot.com)
It may not look too bad right now but the paper I used for the background was definitely ugly haha! It was an animal paper pack that I got when I first started scrapbooking. I cut out bits and pieces to create a scenic background! There is a picture below to give you an idea of what the ugly paper really looked like!
Also, this was the first ribbon/button flower I've ever made.. I like the idea but I'd probably do it a little different next time! Make sure you head on over to the websites above to enter some fun challenges! xo

A Home-Made Flower
To make this cute little flower I used a Fiskars flower punch and punched out 3 flowers in 3 different colours. Then I used my eyelet tool to keep the 3 layers together.
I thought it turned out super pretty but it was so small I didn't know what to do with it! So I flicked through the cards I already had lying around and I used it to embellish the inside of a Spring card I made earlier this month! xo
