SCH is going with Fabric!


Happy Saturday my friends, hope you are starting out on a great weekend of fun things! 
Rick and I are off to another tournament this morning, we are having a blast spending time with friends and shooting again. Hope you are doing something you enjoy.

At Sugar Creek Hollow this week we are using fabric in our designs, so we ask you to create a vintage/shabby chic card or project using fabric but no ribbon or lace! I didn't realize how much I depended on one or the other until I couldn't use them, lol.

I used papers and chipboard from Colorbok's Antique Paperie collection for my card this week with only the sentiments stamped. Embossing with Cuttlebug's baby's breath, liquid pearls, leaves from sizzlelits little leaves and a scalloped and embossed border give just the right punch. Do you see my fabric? It is the sheer yellow bg with the pinked edges. I love the way you can see through this just a bit in person. The fabric was originally intended for a jar topper but I think it looks much better on my card.


I used another part of that same paper to dress up the inside
 adding a birthday sentiment for my friend.

I am entering my card at Mojo Monday using this week's sketch.


Be sure and stop by SCH to see what the rest of the gang has up their sleeves.
We hope you can join us this week in our fabric challenge!

Happy Day......

More is Better.....


More is Better, at least as far as cards go this week at Sugar Creek Hollow where the more embellishments the better.  

I hope you are all having a great start to your weekend. I am doing an auto post and fingers crossed that it posts....Rick and I are going shooting early this morning as we need to be back in the late afternoon for my great niece's 20th birthday party.
Happy Birthday Katy!

I love my card this week, not because I made it but because of these beautiful papers and die cuts from Colorbok Antique Paperie that I picked up a couple of weeks ago when my niece and I went shopping. I used a paper doily and see the one in the die cuts...it is all one piece, that beautiful yellow rose and doily with the scalloped edges. I added another rose and a flocked bird from the same set.
Adding So Saffron grosgrain ribbon and ruffled Baja Breeze from Stampin' Up and a Making Memories ribbon slide just set it off. I love Verve's bible verse stamps and Psalm 37:4 was my friend that passed away a couple of months ago favorite verse. She always gave God credit and praised him, I know she is sitting in Heaven today.


I decorated the inside with some of the same embellishments. 
Hope this encourages you to grab your goodies and get started, we love to see your creations each week at Sugar Creek Hollow.

Happy Day my friends!
