Parisian Bonjour--Monday Makeover Challenge

When I was shopping a couple of weeks ago in Lake Geneva, I found this really neat paper tape. I wasn't sure what I would use it for, but I knew something would come up...

So enter this week's Makeover Monday challenge on Paper Crafter's Library...I had found the perfect project.

After cutting the paper, I adhered the paper tape, stamped the bottom image, and added the rhinestones. I then used my Big Shot and Spellbinders dies to cut the mat for the "bonjour" stamp (it's a little hard to see, but it is mounted on dimensionals).

My inspiration card from the Paper Crafter's Library blog is below:

I'M BACK...with a Monday Makeover Challenge--Birthday Card

After a long break from posting, I'm back! It definitely helps that it is summer time and I have time to actually work on my crafts!

This card is my entry for this week's Paper Crafter's Library Monday Makeover Challenge. The premise is to take a card they show and use it as an inspiration for a project of your own, using things from your own stash. I'm actually pretty happy with how it turned out, especially since my products are from three different companies (Hero Arts, Stampin' Up and Martha Stewart) but they all seemed to match pretty well in color.

The card I used for inspiration can be seen at the link below.
