Happy Days Flower

Happy Days crop

I was just thrilled to see that yesterday’s Ways to Use It Challenge – WT206 – was to use stripes!  I had finished this card last weekend and was trying to find time to write up the blog post.  Julia gave me the nudge I needed!

I found a package of Basic Grey Sugared chip stickers on sale at Michael’s not too long ago.  I’d never used these before, but discovered that they’re really cool and easy to use! And I love the way they look on a card!  How about you?  What do you think?

The Bigz Top Note die was used to cut a piece of fabric from the S.E.I. linen assortment, which is meant to be used for craft projects.  It has a backing which gives it a little more stiffness than regular fabric.  So easy to work with!  I added a few buttons and hemp twine and the card was done!

I’m definitely loving these chipboard stickers for a fast and easy card!

And you know what?  I just remembered that when I made this card I had last week’s WT challenge in mind – WT205 – to use fabric!

It also uses CPS sketch #102!  I always seem to be a week behind on challenges!  I probably just need to quit my day job so I can keep up with what I REALLY want to do!!

Thanks for dropping by for a visit today!
