Playing in a Few Challenges

Today, actually the rest of this week, my blog is wide open! That means I get to play in challenges.  I like that!

I am starting today with Paper Players #190, 3 of something


I have noticed that I get on color kicks - apparently this week is yellow and green :).  As you can see, I used 3 butterflies from PTI Butterfly Dreams, along with the die.  I am also on a stenciling kick -- I just love the way it looks.  Let's hope this trend sticks around for awhile.  [A little note, I got a package of stencils from Wal Mart for like $3! Cha Ching on that find!]  I am also linking this to Keep it Simple; stencil and Virginia's View Challenge; stenciling.

I think that is it for me today -- I will try not to overwhelm you and/or add to my ridiculous amount of back stock cards!  I need to figure out a way to sell some of these cards... wanna buy any????? :)



Thanks for stopping by~

SO VERY fabulous, Vicki! This card proves that you can design anything even with a simple stencil from Wal-mart! Way to rock the stencil challenge! So glad that you join the fun over Virginia's View Challenge! PS: I must shop harder at Wal-mart next time!
