Designer Challenge!



GOOD MORNING my sweet friends & welcome to another "Designer Challenge!"
For our challenge today, we are using this photo as inspiration!

Here are the challenge details:

~ Leave a comment below after you do so!

For my card today, I've been wanting to do a card like this w/a water color background for the shaker part!  I used 4 of the color from the above picture to complete my card! You can see in my video below exactly how I put this together!  The ONLY thing I did, which I did NOT take a picture of is that I stamped "Happy Mother's Day" on the inside of the card! ;)

~ Scalloped Stitched Oval Dies
~ Love You Bunches
~ Uppercase Fun Dies

Other Products Used:
~ Clear Sequins
~ Double Sided Adhesive Foam

  14. Hi Miss Emma, I'm entering the challenge with just a few minutes to spare. I'm new to blogging, so I've spent hours trying to upload everything.. I think I was suppose to put my blog URL into Mister Linky, but I put my pic URL instead. I don't know how to change it and it's only a few minutes away till the deadline.. Hope that's OK. Next month I'll have it right.. :) My blog URL is http://olivethenightcrafter.blogspot.com/

    Thank you so much for the chance to win..
