Hosting a Challenge over at StampTV

I was given the honor of hosting a challenge over at my favourite craft site http://stamptv.ning.com/ and would love you to go check out what it is. I had a lot of fun working out what my challenge would be.  

Free For All Friday - STV12FRI33 - A Few Of Your Favorite Things

stamptv.ning.com

 

This is one of the cards I made as an example for my challenge.

This is what I asked members to do.

For my challenge I would like you to use A FEW OF YOUR FAVORITE THINGS. We all love Gina's stamps our embossing folders and dies so these 3 things will be used on your card.

But there is a twist - can't make it too easy for you. Gina has some beautiful FREE paper here and you will need to tell us which one you chose and use it on your card. Also because you have used a machine to die cut you need to add something hand cut too.

And this is how I made my card.

 I used Gina's paper - The Great Outdoors Straw Burlap and embossed it with a Darice Embossing Folder. Spellbinders Labels 20 and Floral Ovals for my dies and also used MS punch. The stamp I used is from Whimsical Wishes and stamped onto Peachy Keen paper. Cit out several by hand and popped. Also used Peachy Keen for my Labels 20 cut out. The sentiment is from Springtime Silhouttes. Added pearls to the flowers and lace ribbon and a button to finish it off. 

I know it has been a long time since I posted but just getting back to normal after  my holiday break. 

Will be back soon as there is another blog hop I am involved with and will update you on this real soon .
