Waffle Flower week1 Challenge: Leaves!!

 

I'm always up for a challenge - in this case, I'm super excited about the Weekly Challenge from this fun gang at Waffle Flower Crafts!

Channin, Daniel, and Tiffany have challenged us to use leaves as the focal point of our cards - I knew just the ones to reach for.  Bonus, I used some smooshed panels from my snippets box!

Greenery, Micro Grid panel 2, and Rainbow Thank You die.

You only have until March 11th to play... better get a move on, before this challenge leaves us behind!!  lol

Another box card ~ for FMS400

We had a short 3-day road trip this weekend, crossing the gorgeous Mackinac Bridge, heading North to Canada, and then a wonderful drive South along the Lake Huron coastline - for the most part, in Ontario, Canada.   We always think Lake Michigan is the best of all the Great Lakes, since we're so close - Huron, you've become my second favorite of them all!

An idea percolated in my brain while riding …  I couldn't wait to put that idea to paper for Freshly Made Sketches' 400th Sketch celebration …

 … a landscape box card!  I hope you've had a chance to watch Shari Carrol's video - it was the guide for the birthday card I made for my husband last week!

 Here are a few closeups...

 

 

and a peek at how I add a sentiment:

 

 



Hope you like it, FMS designers … you've inspired so many cards over the years, and I've loved playing along with your challenge, and so very honored to win a few, too! 

Congratulations on your 400th Challenge!  Cheers to the next 400!!
