I needed to make a card for a wedding I'm going to next weekend. So I figured I would enter one of the challenges on
. The sketch is as follows:
This card took me a couple tries but this is exactly how I imagined it. Hope you all enjoy!

I've been keeping pretty busy lately these past couple of weeks.
Can you tell? All last week I was studying for two midterms and was plenty busy at work giving me no time to breathe. But now that I have a chance, I wanted to fill you in on some updates.
First, I've got a new personal blog which can be found at
xoxoChelly. I want to blog more about my life but I also want to keep my paper crafts separate so I've decided to make two separate blogs.
I also plan to enter more challenges. I will browse around ever so often to find different challenges to get my creative juices flowing! Hopefully you can join me!
Last but not least, in case you still don't have a
Cricut yet, please head over to your local
Michael's store and see if they are on sale. My boyfriend and I went yesterday to window shop and to our surprise the
Cricut was on sale for
$299.99! Yes
$299.99!! Well, like an addict that I am, we ended up buying it and a few other supplies. Boy, was I excited to open it up last night! So excited I decided to join the fun at
Mojo Monday. Here is my take on Mojo 75:


I'm excited to be able to join in on these challenges. They're alot of fun and I'm happy to have more supplies! Hope you all enjoy!

Deloris sent the group another challenge in the mail. This one was a bit harder than last! But it definitely got my creative juices flowing! She sent the little blue circular things on the right. She actually sent a few in different colors, but I like the blue the best =) Those stamps are also the ones she sent me in the mail! I love them! Also, you probably can't tell in this picture but the stamped images are embossed! I bought a heat gun and some clear embossing powder a few weeks ago and fell in love with the look! Now I try to incorporate it into every project I do!
Enjoy!

Envelope Challenge with LovetheBug Yahoo Group
Deloris from the LovetheBug Yahoo Group, has challenged the group with an envelope challenge. She sent each of us an evelope of goodies to make a card with. Here is my take on the challenge. I am also testing various ways of taking pictures of my cards so please do feel free to leave suggestions! The first is on a white background.

The second is with the card laid down flat on the table.

Last but not least, this one is standing up on a black background.
Deloris definitely had my mind going last night! I spent about an hour trying to figure out what to do. I loved it! Hope you all like!
