PSC42- Christmas Borders

It's Wednesday again and we are thinking about Christmas in July over at The Perfect Sentiment.
Here are all the details for the Challenge this week.

The Challenge: Create a card for Christmas, Hanukkah or maybe ever Season's Greeting
Twist: Use a border punch on your card and don't forget to put the sentiment on the front of your card.
Our sponsor this week is Patty's Creations

The winner will receive 1 free digi
Now to show you my card. I didn't think it would be a hard card to make but then I found it hard to get in the Christmas mood.
But, with that said I did find my craft mojo and used this cool punch from Martha Stewart. I would call it a branch punch.


I used a little Tim Holts ink and some embellishments that I had on hand. Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to stop by the other DT members blogs to get more inspiration. Then I hope you get your grove on and stop on over and link up your card at The Perfect Sentiments challenge blog.

PSC41 - Anything goes

Hi everybody it is Wednesday again and that means it is time to have another great challenge over at The Perfect Sentiment. So take the challenge and play along with us.

Challenge: Create anything you want as long as it has a sentiment on the front of your project. We don't do layouts so leave those out . But you can do any of the following.... ATC, Altered Art, Cards, Tags.
Twist: Just make sure you have a sentiment on the front of your project.
Our sponsor this week is Advocado Arts.

They are giving the winner this great stamp set.
Sunshine and Smiles
We are so excited to have a new sponsor and be able to give the winner a REAL stamp set.
Now to show you my project. I am going to a baby shower this weekend so I wanted to give the grandmother something to put in her purse to brag on the new grandbaby.
Here it is untied so you can see this cute little poem....




I started by cutting strips of paper that were 4" x 11". I made two and then attached them together.
I scored them every 4" so the squares are 4 x 4.
Here is a picture of the inside.

I used double sided paper so that she will be able to put four pictures on each side.

I cut the chipboard ( front & back) at 4 1/2 x 4 1/2 so that it would be a little bit bigger that the folded pages.
I attached the ribbon with sticky tape.
Inside the front cover I stuck this little tag so that she can put name, weight and birthdate.
Try one of these for a great little brag book. Now don't forget to stop by all the other DT members blogs. I have all their blogs listed on my sidebar. Then get your project together and meet me back at The Perfect Sentiment and link it up.
