Chocolate Understands ...

That life is to my liking which is made up of little deeds, little sacrifices, little kindnesses. ~Birthday letter quoted in J.R. Macduff, Birthdays, 1893

Good morning!

I’m here to share my project for the new color challenge which started today at The Outlawz Challenges!

Our sponsor this month is DiDigisStamps with a $12.00 gift card to her store.

This week’s challenge comes from Ursula, to create anything but a card using the colors below.

I made candy bar covers! And the tags are long enough to be bookmarks --- so bonus!

Supplies

• Card Candy (Stash)
• Card stock (Bazzill and Stampin Up!)
• Fancy Labels 3 die (Sizzix)
• Glitter (Oriental Trading Company)
• Ink (Close to My Heart)
• Sentiment “Chocolate understands” (Rubbernecker Stamps)

• Twine (American Craft)

Thanks for stopping by and don’t forget to stop by The Outlawz Challenges where a new challenge starts every day of the week!

Baskets full of Posies ...

The dust and odour of ancient libraries, the gloom of those crypts of literature, have... all the charm of freshest images and freshest poetry. ~Alexandre Vinet (1797–1847)

  

Good morning Friends!

Today starts a new Color Challenge at The Outlawz Challenges and our sponsor this month is DigiStamps4Joy.

This week your challenge is to use 4 of these 5 colors below on anything but a card.

We have some great inspiration waiting for you from the Designs Team members so come check it out and play along with us!

I made a book mark using the image that is actually the DigiStamp4Joy June Progressive Freebie for my daughter who loves to read. I didn't add a tassel because she does not like them.

Marking the page ...

A good book should leave you... slightly exhausted at the end. You live several lives while reading it.
