I've been eating alot of turkey wraps lately for lunch. Yum..

You know when a card just pops up in your mind and comes together? Well thats what happened with this one. I knew I wanted to do this sketch 148 by Card Patterns blog.

Then I saw this new SOS challenge to use a border punch. Heck ya baby! I can do both in one and it'll be absolutely awesome. Not only that, this card is made with old paper. Like ancient scraps from the bottom of my paper scraps box.


Here is the sketch:


Here's my card I made:


pink pp and cupcake-BG, lovepp and polk dotpp-My Minds Eye, paper border punch-Fiskars, ribbon and heart-unknown.



I don't know if I've ever really talked about how every year we do a Mardi Gras party. My hubby is from New Orleans so we get up all in on it. You know what I mean? We'll we're starting to plan our yearly party. Its going to be the Sunday before Mardi Gras. (Feb 19th). I'm so excited. I think I'm going to make a Mardi Gras table cloth and I might also make some sort of wreath/doorhanging thing for the door. I feel a trip to Joann's in my future! I made a small order on Oriental trading company for some stuff. I'm going to hit up the dollar store and see if I can get some cheap purple/gold/green plates somewhere. I'll be posting projects soon! Thanks for stopping by.
