Mitten Builder Throwback Thursday...PPA274

For the Pals Paper Arts 274 Color Challenge I used the mitten builder punch and make a mitten stamp set for my Throwback Thursday card since both of these items are retired.  I also broke open one of my favorite retired design series paper call sweater weather because it matched the mittens so wonderfully.  Here is the color challenge:

And here is my card :)  I stamped the border of the hearts in chocolate chip on some very vanilla cotton ribbon for that soft look.  I sponged chocolate chip on the mitten cuffs and added some thick bakers twine to hold the mittens together so one doesn't get lost.  The sentiment comes from the Acorny Thank You stamp set from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog.  I love how this fun fall card turned out!



Sparkly Seasons...Mojo Monday 422

This was such a pretty card to make following the sketch over at Mojo Monday!  I love how it turned out using the sparkly seasons photopolymer stamp set and seasonal framelits bundle from the Stampin' Up! Holiday Catalog.

I used pink pirouette, whisper white, and rose red card stock along with a silver foil sheet and metallic doily.  I ran the silver foil sheet in a snowflake folder through my big shot to give it those snowflake impressions.  The ballerina is embossed in silver and die cut out.  Talk about pretty in pink :)  Check out all the supplies below.
