My Very First Challenge!!

Hi Everyone, I wanted to share my very first Challenge over at Papercraft Star.  This week was a pretty easy challenge and I needed to make a Anniversary Card for my Parents.  This is very new to me.  I hope to continue to do challenges from now on. 

So the challenge this week was from Simon Says Follow this Recipe:

Make a Card
Base: 5.5 x 5.5
Mat: 5x5
Score Mat 5 times at 1/4 inch
3 Flowers from Die Cut or Punch
3 Buttons and Twine

(You may also add a sentiment or other items as desired), this was a perfect opportunity to try this out and see if I like it. 

I used Shinny Grey cardstock as my base.  Scored five times with my scor-pal to the pink vellum.  Applied scriped pattered paper to the center of the vellum.  Added some pink ribbon.   Punched and layered pink vellum flowers.  Added clear buttons (I got from Rica, thanks Rica) and strung twine through the buttons.  And thats my Card.  Enjoy. 

Thanks everyone for stopping by and taking a peak. Have a great weekend. Wish me luck!! LOL.  I hope everyone likes my card. 

Hugs, Friday

Hiya Friday! Oh boy, another of my fellow YouTubers has been bitten by the card challenge bug. I've gotten so wrapped up in it I've totally neglected YT for about a month. Got to get my new mini under construction. :) Your card is wonderful! Love the vellum flowers. Thanks so much for playing along with us at Papercraft Star this week!
