Last Krafty Girls Challenge for the Season

Hi there!

Today starts the last Krafty Girls challenge of the season. This is bittersweet for me. This was my very first Design Team to be a member of, but this also means I made it through all the way. :) I learned a lot, and had so much fun! This weeks challenge was an "Anything Goes" challenge. I had so much fun using some supplies I had been hoarding. I am really happy with the way this card turned out. I had to put it down and walk away a few times, but I think it was so worth it! I love when projects come together, especially when there were more than a few "I'm just going to scrap it" thoughts. 


The printed papers are from the Highline paper pade from Basic Grey. The sentiment is a cardstock sticker from the same collection, and yes, there are 4 mats to that sticker.  The silver border is a Martha Stewart punch, and it was a foil paper. I felt the card needed some silver to balance out all the brads I added. Don't you love that ribbon? I received it as a gift from a Unity Stamp Co Purchase. I have it in red too :D


I tried to make the flower colors mimic the ones on the bottom corner of the tag.  The two smaller flowers are Prima, they were white, but I used inks to dye them. The larger flower was a pack from Hobby Lobby by The Paper Studio, and they also started out white. The gems are also from The Paper Studio.  I used Smooch spray for the glimmer :)


I had so much fun creating whatever I wanted, and I hope you all will hop on over to Krafty Girls to share a project of your own. Remember in this challenge Anything Goes, so be creative or just show who you are and most importantly HAVE FUN! I can't wait to see what you guys create :) Thanks for reading!
