1. The first was from a weekly challenge posted by an e-mail group, to which I belong {Scrabookers Anonymous}, which encouraged me to use punctuation on the page somewhere besides the text/journaling.
2. I also accepted Challenge #4 - On a Budget on the House Mouse Monday Challenge blog, which required me to not only use a House Mouse & Friends stamp, but also to make a card/layout for under $2 in cost...excluding the price of ink, stamps, punches, and other tools that I already owned. A breakdown of the cost for this project is included in the recipe below.
3. My personal challenge to use the paint chips I've been collecting.
Recipe:
- Cardstock - light green and shimmer purple, source unknown ($.75)
- Ink - SU! Classic Black
- Markers - SU! Always Artichoke, Blush Blossom, Elegant Eggplant
- Colored pencil - purple, source unknown
- Stamp - House Mouse & Friends
- Fonts - CK Vogue & CK Man's Print
- Punches - SU! 1 1/4" & 3/4" circles, decorative corner punch source unknown
- Paint chips - Home Depot ($.00)
- Brads - Making Memories ($.25)
- Flowers - Michael's clearance stem ($.50 for a handful of them)
- Brackets - designed and cut on my Klic-N-Kut
Grand total of project: ($1.50)...and that's being generous
This was a fun project...I hope you enjoy it!!
Hugs to you,
