Teal and brown and a little bit vintage

Sharing some more cards :)

Photobucket

# The Pink Elephant ~ Challenge #27 ~ Brown, turquoise and neutral
I used paper from Pink Paislee 'Fetching' which was just the perfect colour.
# Allsorts ~ Week 13 ~ Vintage
The stamp is by Paper Artsy. I've been wanting to use this image for a while and I was waiting for the right project. I added some twine and inking to 'vintage' it up a bit, hopefully it worked.


Sticking with the turquoise, but switching to blues and greens for this one, which is for my friend and CISter Laura. Well, actually it's for her little boy who turns 2 on the weekend. Happy birthday Luke!!



# Stamp with Fun ~ Challenge 19 ~ Birthday theme
Credits: Stampin' Up truck stamp, Twinkling H2O's, Bazzill 'Bahama' cardstock, Daisy Bucket papers, Carolee's Creations alphabet stickers

    Great work! The first stamp is amazing, but I could see how finding the perfect use for it could be a challenge. Great job. Um... and the button wheels. Too, too cute.
