Back to the Drawing Board

This is my THIRD (really?) post of the day, to see my other submission to the Sparks Challenge and Casual Fridays and my Paper Made Bakery Sneak Peak, scroll down.

After making my first card for the challenges (to see my first post for these challenges scroll down), I went back to the drawing table and tried something new. I hope you see that in this little blog, that I am open to trying new things and giving some variety of technique and style. Anyhoo, I made a shaker card. I had envisioned snowflakes with white aspen trees, but it didn't fit the color scheme, so I am going to tuck away that little gem of an idea for another day.

Here is my second card for both challenges trying a SHAKER CARD! And I was a bit lazy on the shake part because I am not really good at fussy cutting, so I just punched out the leaves!



I am entering this card in both Paper Smooches Cool Shades Color Challenge and Casual Fridays Challenge #71, make a CAS card inspired by Autumn.

    Those punched leaves are so right-on! I love that you didn't just cut them out. Fantastic, Wida!
