Elzybells, MFT and PaperTrey Oh My!!
Nov 20th, 2007 by Jen
The 20th is here…already!! I have had it in my mind that the 20th was Wednesday. So, when I actually noticed that TODAY was the 20th I mumbled a little something under my breath and got to stamping…real quick!!!
The first card that I have here is for Jami’s challenge. Jami put forth a challenge to all Dirty Dozen past and present to use this Elzybells image with Pretty In Pink. One stipulation was that we could not use any patterned paper, so I hope it’s ok that I kinda made my own using a Michael’s $1 stamp from a year or two ago. You can see all of the Dirty Girl creations for this challenge HERE at SCS. The “snow” is covered in layers of Star Dust Stickles. It really sparkles in real life!!
The second card I have here was made during my power hour…aka NAP TIME!! It’s made for CELEBRATING MFT DAY. If you want to know more about this day, click HERE. To see more creations made for this celebration, click HERE. This card uses one of the newest sets from My Favorite Things, Build A Bouquet. I cannot express how much I absolutely LOOOOVE this set. For those of you that think that you don’t need another flower set…you’re only right if you already own this one. LOVE IT!!…and I’m not just saying that because I’m on the DT…PROMISE!! The colors I used for this card are {SU!} River Rock, Soft Sky, Basic Black and Whisper White. I would have never thought to put these colors together, but some scraps ended up piling themselves into this combo and it grabbed my eye.
Are you wondering where the PaperTrey card is? Well, actually there isn’t one. I’m just off to meet Shannan to get the ones that she ordered for my while I was in AZ with a slow internet connection. Monogrammed teacher gifts will soon be made!
Of goody, monogrammed cards are what I am making for my DS teachers, do you have any ideas for a masculine version? I have seen alot being done but not for any men. Glad to see that you are feeling better.
Two beautiful cards.
Love your Elzy–I certainly couldn’t tell that you were hurrying at all! Have fun with your new monograms.
LOVE the BAB card (cool color combo and such a clean, mod look), and the Elzybell is a cutie, too! Tell Shannan I said “Hi!”
Both cards are fabulous! Love the colours of the first one…that stamp is so adorable!
These are both adorable! I love the color combo on the 2nd one. Love it!!!
love the cards! love the clean lines of the MFT card. great colors.
That Elzybell card is darling! Love the MFT one, too. And so jealous that you not only get to see Shannan, but get your PaperTrey stamps before me , even though I placed my order before Shannan did!
These are so cute !!!! Love the images and layout and colors…I guess that means I love the whole thing !!! hehehe
Have a great day

Both cards are great! That Elzybell card is just adorable — what a great challenge Jami had! I can’t wait to see what you do with the PT monogram sets — I’m planning to use them for Christmas gifts, too!
Don’t ya just love when the scrap pile presents you with new and unimagined color combos? LOL. Looks great. Love the Elzybell too. She just screams for pink.
