Roots

A card for the "Roots" challenge at CASology. I had

one could be used for an engagement card, wedding card
or a congratulations for a pregnancy announcement.

Paper:  PTI Vintage Cream, SU Chocolate Chip & Raspberry Ripple
Ink:  SU Raspberry Ripple
Die:  PTI Mighty Oak,

Celebrate

Hold onto to your seats ~ I am entering a challenge 
on the very first day.  I was on call today, and did not 
have to go into to work.  Yeah!  This card is for the 
"carnival" challenge at CASology.  Mardi Gras starts
today, and it is certainly like a carnival.  I used the colors 
of Mardi Gras for this card.  Unfortunately it did not
photograph well due to the metallic tape. I think I 
bought this tape at a craft rummage sale, and recently 
found it during my craft reorganization. Also, IRL the purple
sequins and tape seem to be much closer in color. I am
 also entering this at Seize the Birthday, where anything goes.





 

Supplies ~ 
Stamp:   PTI Think Big Favorites # 4
Paper:  PTI White, Gold from my stash
Ink:  SU Rich Razzleberry
Punch:  SU Modern Label
Additional Supplies:  Metallic tape from my stash, Sequins ~ LCS

Thanks so much for stopping by!
