Memphis Zoo

I still have more photos from our Memphis Zoo trip over 2010 Spring Break!  I made this using Sketch Inspiration's sketch #206 for the one-hour tulle challenge at Creating Keepsakes! I cut out the tulle using a Sizzix die and layered it with flowers and brads. I love how the flowers turned out!

Thanks for visiting my blog! I hope you'll leave a comment! Have a great day!

Father's Day Card - Texture and Distressing!

This card is a little out of character for me.  I really didn't like the paper under the squares but I have now made two projects out of it and found that by stretching my imagination, I could make something a little artsy out of it! The card has some distressing and a lot of texture! I got the sketch from CPS Challenge #168.  I am also going to submit it to a Father's Day challenge on Ideas for Scrapbookers. If you haven't checked out that blog, you should really think about it. It is just filled with ideas!


Supplies:
card base: DCWV
patterned paper:  Glitz Designs
squares are from scraps but are embossed with either a Cuttlebug or Sizzix folder
stamps:  CTMH
ink:  Aged Mahogany Distress Ink from Tim Holtz
tulle
other:  sandpaper, staples
