The Outlawz Monday Greeting Challenge

This is my first entry, of many I hope, for the Outlawz Monday Greeting Card Challenge.  This week they asked for a greeting card, which must have a sentiment on the front, and they also chose BLING needs to be in the mix somewhere. 


Monday's Greeting Card

For my entry I decided on making a Thank You card.  Simple and sweet.  I'm using a 4 1/4" x 4 1/4" card, embossed it through the cuttlebug using the swirls folder.  I used the flower cut from Sweet Treats at 4" and used stickles for the outer edge of the flower.  The circle was too perfect, so I broke out my 'shaggy' scizzors and just barely trimmed the edge off.  I stamped "Thanks" and added some bling. I used runner tape to adhear the center of the flower, the petals kind of stand up on their own, and looks 3D.   Tah Dah!  This is my entry:

  2. love the papers you chose, so pretty and warm, would be thrilled to receive this ty card :)
    ty for stopping by my blog today, you asked a ? about my wed cake in a box card, it took quite a few hours, but that's because of stopping to decide on what shapes, stamps and papers to use through out. If I was to redo the entire card it probably wouldn't take that long, like probably 2 hrs maybe a little more with the heat embossing. :) So worth it when you see the finished project and then the thrill it gives to the recipient:)
