Love Beautiful You

Hi Everyone!

Hope you all had a fun weekend. Ours was low-key; but still fun. I was completely and shamefully lazy on Saturday; but I did do some crafting. Yesterday, we made Halloween cookies and played the Wii in the afternoon and I was able to make this card for Viva La Verve's sketch for week 3 October. It took me all day to do it! LOL because I did a little and then stopped and then came back and just tweaked it more and more. I finally got it finished and I have to say, I really like the end result. A few weeks ago, I took advantage of the sale that 2 Peas was having on 6x6 paper Pads. I bought 4 Christmas pads and 4 other pads. The one I used on this card is from Jillibean Soup "Dutch Mustard Soup" pad. I love the greens and browns,oranges and yellows in this collection. I used Verve's "You and I" set along with the "I Heart U" Die Set. I also used some Real Juicy Orange Sparkly Fluff from Our Craft Lounge just to dazzle things up a bit.

Challenges:

Inspire Me Fridays:  Anything Goes
Catered Crop: FTR23. (I used: Fall Colors, Pattern Paper, Ribbon, buttons, Die cuts and Punches)
Pan Pastel: Add two buttons
Stamptacular Sunday: Anything goes

Have a great day everyone!
