one card, three challenges


I am really getting the hang of all these challenges.  It is something that I look forward to every week now.  Sometimes I surprise myself that I can make my card fit more than one challenge.  Such is the case for this card.  I am entering this not only to one, nor two but three challenges.  Talk about being efficient, ha!

Here is my card. I used Papertrey stamp (celebrations), die (modern alphabet, wonderful words, framed out), impression plate (woodgrain), cardstock (smokey shadow, true black, spring moss, aqua mist, hawaiian shores), patterned paper (bitty dot pure poppy) and ink (fresh snow).  Wow, this is a 100% Papertrey card!



I am entering this to the following challenges:

- One of Papertrey’s Anniversary contests where we were asked to create a project inspired by one of the Design Team's favourite projects.  I chose Danielle Flanders' XOXO card. I  love the dark background and the gradient of colour in this card.



- Next is at CAS-ual Fridays.   The challenge is to use letters creatively in our CAS project.  I used my different die cut  letters to create the focal point of the card.



- And lastly, I am entering this to Passion for Papertrey’s Love is in the Air challenge.  The project does not have to be for Valentines but should be love-themed.  I made this card for my Dad’s birthday.  His birthday is not until October but I want to make my cards in advance, lol.

Thanks for stopping by and hope you are having a fabulous week!
