Crazy 4 Challenges- Square Cards

Happy Saturday people!! Right now, I am working the midnight shift, so my Saturday isn't what I would call happy, but hey...such is life!! I am VERY HAPPY that it is time for another Crazy 4 Challenges challenge...and being a new month means we have a new hostess which is Cindy Haffner. With Christmas just around the corner, Cindy has some nice and easy challenges for us this month.

So let's get started! For our first challenge for the month, Cindy has challenged us to create square cards.

If you would like to play along with us, all you have to do is create a card/project, and upload it to your blog and/or to your SCS Gallery using the keyword C4C62. Don't forget to come back here and link it on Mr Linky so that everyone else can see it too.


For my card, I used Mercy's sketch from this week, along with the new Bedtime Story Pure Innocence set. Isn't she a CUTIE PIE!! I paper pieced most of my image using some Pasta Fagioli DP from Jillibean Soup along with some Fly a Kite from Cosmo Cricket. My card stock is Regal Rose and Summer Sun from SU, and Berrylicious from MFT. What wasn't paper pieced, was stamped on an MFT Perfect Panel, and then colored with Copics.

For the inside, I used the same paper, and some more brads from Michael's.
Well, that is it for me for now!! Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!! Be sure to check out my Crazie girls...it will be worth it!!

Mojo162 Happy Holidays

Isn't this new set from There She Goes just the CUTEST??!! When I sat down to stamp tonight, I knew EXACTLY what I wanted to use!! This new set is called Snowy Days, and sells for $15. It was designed by the fabulous Torico!

I paired my super cute image with the Mojo Monday sketch from last week. It fit perfectly in the cute little circle in the middle. My image was stamped on an MFT Perfect Panel, and then colored with my Copics. I paired it with Ruby Red(SU), and Jellybean Green from MFT. My red ribbon is from SU, and my white is from Michael's. My brads are from Michael's as well, and my spiral clips is from Creative Express. I used an SU punch for my sentiment.

My ribbon is from MFT, and my brads are all from Michael's.

My scallops were cut out using the Little Open Scalloped Strip Die-namic. They were cut out of Wild Wasabi, and paired with some more yummy DP.

For the inside, I used more of the same supplies...and I actually oopsied on the sentiment, and made it a little crooked, so instead of starting over, I stamped it again, punched it out, and covered it up!! lol!!
