A card and some news!

Let's start with the news, shall we?!

As you may or may not know, CropChocolate.com has recently had tryouts for the new upcoming design team term (the current one ends in December). And guess what???? That's right! I'm on it again! I'm so happy they let existing DT members back on again!

And now for the cards.

I made these for the CropChocolate.com Focus  Group's October challenge which is to make something from Pinterest. (If you don't know what Pinterest is, I suggest you Google it :).

The original card is one I just saw and pinned the other day. You can find it here: http://thebalddragonfly.blogspot.ca/2012/07/ellie.html

Isn't that simple and lovely?!

I couldn't choose just one stamp for this so I made two.



Love them! Although the girl is looking a wee bit ghostly, don't you think?





Supplies:
October Afternoon: 'Good Cheer' 8x8
Carta Bella: kraft cardstock
Cornish Heritage Farms: 'Christmas Critter' stamp set
Kraftin' Kimmie Stamps: 'Virginia' stamp set

  2. Congratulations on your design team spot! Thank you for giving me a link to these fabulous cards. I am so honored that someone was inspired!! These two cards are fabulous, they both make me grin and I think your choice of the red/blue/kraft/white is absolutely perfect! I don't think the girl looks ghostly at all, because all of the actual girl part you kept white.
