Paper Pretties–SEWING

** Please scroll down to see my post for ALL THAT SCRAPS for today. Thanks so much.

Hello and happy Wednesday my friends. It's time for another Paper Pretties challenge. Our challenge today is SEWING. Can I just say how much I love this challenge. I think I sew on about 90% of my cards so this was a very FUN challenge for me.

I used the image Always in My Heart Sophia for my card. I think this Sophia is just adorable and have a peek at the precious sentiment that comes with her. I have a close-up of it so that you can see the “hearts” in the words. AND THIS SET IS ON SALE FOR HALF-PRICE. Can you say woo-hoo? Here is my card.

We hope you can play along with us this week. Leave a link to your project on the Paper Pretties blog. One random participant this week will win a Paper Pretties stamp set.  You DO NOT need to use Paper Pretties stamps in order to play along, but if you do, you will get a bonus entry into the drawing! Please be sure to mention our challenge and link back to the Paper Pretties blog in your project posting. If you upload to a public gallery please use the keyword PWC138.

Thanks for joining me today and I'll see you back here tomorrow.

All That Scraps–SNOWMEN

Hello friends and happy Wednesday. It's time for another All That Scraps Wednesday Challenge. Our challenge for you today is “SNOWMEN”. There is so much snow in our country right now that this challenge fits in perfectly. I have been stuck in my house for the past 4 days …. ugh!!! It snowed 7 inches here in Northwest GA (which never happens BTW) and now the temps are below freezing until the weekend and all the roads are icy. Yes. it’s true, southern people CAN NOT drive in the snow. The thing is …. we never get any practice at it. LOL.

On to my card. I used the sweet image Frosty the Snowmouse by Kraftin’ Kimmie and sold at ALL THAT SCRAPS. I did my sponging a little different around my image this time, I used two colors. What do you think?
