I may have recreated a little card I love to do for The Coffee Lover's bloghop ... with this fabulous color scheme as my inspiration - I give you card one:
Lifestyle Crafts embossing folder; Concord & 9th Love You - Mean it! stamps;
Avery Elle Bonjour circa 2012 - but I LOve it! Stamped in SU Crumb Cake;
AND a fun-foam 'marshmallow'!!
For Second Helpings, I wanted to have it be all about the thanks - in this case? Merci Beaucoup!
Incorporating a few snippets of that blue, a bit of kraft, and Teresa Collins enamel dots:
Ooh La La, indeed!
So there you have it ... I love to see how my team-mates are inspired - don't you? Of course, we love to see YOU in The Challenge gallery, too! Won't you join us? Please, and thank you!

PERFECT

ReplyDeleteHot chocolate is nothing without marshmallows, Michele, so I'm glad you added one to your cup. Love both designs and all that texture.
ReplyDeleteYou are sooooooo talented! These two cards are incredible! The cookies are delightful - especially in that they mimic the ef images so well.
ReplyDeleteOoh-la-la is exactly that! More delicious texture, bedazzled with wee pops of color and the single white enamel dot (such a cool idea!). Awesome cards!
