Join Our Challenge, Won't You?

Really Reasonable Ribbon has a great challenge this week.  All you need to do is use the colors pink and brown and some ribbon, of course :)  Although I don't use these colors together very often I like the color combination. This is a Topiary made with Graphic 45 Papers, Pink Seam Binding, Brown Sugar Baker's Twine and lots of corsage pins.  Hop on over to Really Reasonable Ribbon Ramblings to see what the Design Team has created :)

Kraft Outlet Anything Goes Challenge: Quote Journal

Hello friends!!  I placed my first order with Kraft Outlet and thought these little journals were so sweet.  Because I enjoy quotes, there are rub-on quotes by Quick Quotes on some of the pages.  There are plenty of blank pages to add quotes as I collect them.  The beautiful image on the front is Crafty Secrets and do you see the 1800’s  dictionary page in the background? 
Right now Kraft Outlet is having a giveaway.  Just grab some of your Kraft Outlet goodies and make whatever your heart desires fort the Make It Monday Challenge.  Someone will win a $15.00 gift voucher!  The designers have some cute projects on the blog if you’re in need of some inspiration.

And..I think I figured out the challenge over at Splitcoast Stampers where Marcy is the host.  If I'm right, it's to make a tag!  LOL..if not, I had fun making the tag anway :)
I used my Accucut Shadowbox Die and cut out the center panels.  Sewed the two sides together to make a tag.  I kept the top open so a gift card could easily be tucked inside.  Paper is Authentique and the sweet image is Crafty Secrets.  Baker's Twine is Really Reasonable Ribbon.
