Sweet Twenty-One for One Stop Card Crafts, and several other challenges

Good morning everyone
We have a new challenge at One Stop Card Crafts, and we will be looking to see numbers on your entries to the challenge this week.  This week we welcome a brand new sponsor for 2011...... Ellephantastic.

We look forward to see all your creations on the challenge blog.


****Also is you would like to feature as a guest designer for challenge #118 please put GDT after your name.*****



For my card I have decided to make it a 21st birthday card, and therefore I wanted to make it a little more special.  So, it is an 8 inch square one.


 I have used Bazzill cardstock, and the DT papers are MME Bella Bella, which I adore - I love the vintage look of them.  I have inked around the edges with a chalk ink in brown.  On the pieces underneath the photograph I have used a Doo Hickey die on the edge of the plain card, and stamped the patterned paper with a very old Anna Griffin music stamp.  The swirls are Tim Holtz, leaves under the flowers are Doo Hickey and L-Em, and the butterflies are Martha Stewart.  The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts, and pearls from stash.  The beautiful photograph is from Art Freebies.

I am entering this card for the following challenges.

Anything Goes Challenge - Butterflies
CCEE Stampers - Must use a punch - I have a butterfly and the numbers made with punches
C.R.A.F.T. Challenge - In the roll of a die - must use die

  11. Thank you for your interest in participating on The Stamping Bazaar's Anything Goes challenge with your beautiful card. Unfortunately, it does not qualify, as per our rules using a stamp from The Stamping Bazaar somewhere in your card is required to enter in any of our challenges (even if the challenge is "anything goes" —it means you can make anything you want using a TSB stamp.)

    We hope you will join us in the near future! :)
