Have A Fantastic Night... 2nd Post

Thanks for stopping back by!  As I said in my first post of the day I was super excited when I found Pamela's World Of Scrap and all of the amazing sketches she had up, so I just had to play along even if it was cutting it close on time!  I used card sketch: 240c, to make this:



All of these supplies look familiar because.... they are all scraps from my layout I shared earlier today, I just love doing that don't you?!  Thanks for stopping by and have a great rest of the day!
Happy Crafting!

Moxie Sticker Fab

Hello!  If you are just stopping by for the first time I'd love for you to see my earlier layout post!  Now for this post I stepped out of my comfort zone and used stickers on my card to play along with the Moxie Fab Stickers and Tape Challenge... now I know many of you are like "really, stickers are out of your comfort zone?"  and if I was talking about layouts I would say no, because I use stickers all the time on them, but I just never think to use them on cards to be honest.  After playing around I am really happy with my card, and def. want to add more stickers to more of my cards they are so fun!  Thanks Moxie Fab for getting me to try something new!


Supplies Used:
Patterned Paper: Lilybee Designs and Carta Bella
Stickers: Carta Bella (phone and paper clip), Simple Stories (sentiment)
Embossing Folder: LetterPress
Die: Spellbinders
Stamp: Sweet Stamps.com (handwritten background)
Ink: Shades Ink Spots
Sequins: Whimsical Twist
Rhinestone: Recollections

I started by embossing the background patterned paper.  I then die cut a circle and added the phone.  I cut a journaling square from my Carta Bella Hello Again line, stamped on it and folded one corner.  I cut my banner and layered it with the journal square and circle adding the paper clip sticker up top.  Finally I added the sentiment, sequins and rhinestones.

Thanks for visiting me and hope you have a moxie fab. day!
Happy Crafting!
