Speedy Fox and Friends Challenge 247

We all have those border punches and dies but how often do you think about using more than one of them on a card. Well that's what we're doing this week. I've used a super wide snowflake punch on the bottom layer and a small scalloped punch for 2 layers. Check it out.

Oriental Sketch Challenge 63

This weeks challenge has a great sketch. I'm really enjoying being part of this challenge. I find myself creating the the layout papers before I even pick out the images to use. Go on over and give it a try. Its really easy using these sketches to make a card.

 The Foo Dog is colored with pencil.

Here is a great technique. Glue die cuts onto your cardstock background. Put it into an embossing folder and run it through your Cuttlebug, or whatever machine you use. Go on over and try it out.

Cool looking don't you think. I used vellum.
