Tag (You're It!) Tuesday Takes on White (NOT the snowy kind!)

Hey there!  Welcome back to my blog for yet another inspiring tag!  I apologize for all the white, it keeps reminding me of the snow still being predicted around here each week, lol!  Yikes!  NOT my intention at all, I assure you.  ;) 

I told you that I was working on another white on white monotone paper creation, and here it is!

You really should try this kind of colorless combo!  It is really fun to see what you can do to make the white stand out against itself.  I love embossing the paper to add some shadows, so I used the new Close to My Heart Dots Embossing folder to give my 3D bow from MCT some extra depth.  

The stitched and scalloped circle dies with this vellum look amazing with the Whisper Ink and the shadows from the layers. I am linking up with the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge for using vellum with this one too!

All the dies I used are from MCT, and the stitching on them is such a great touch on a monotone color palette.  I doubled up the tag on this one to give it some extra uumph!  :)

Hope you are all having a good week so far!   March is quickly coming to a close, so remember to grab that Stamp of the Month and place an order on my website so you can be entered into the drawing for my MYSTERY Hostess!  Click here for more info!  Or, get right to shopping HERE!

Dusting off the Old Craft Supplies for Lawnscaping

Hey everyone!  This challenge was just what I needed to get my crafty rear in gear and use up some old paper.

Lawnscaping Challenge Blog

I had some old Paper Layerz that I had purchased to use with my Cricut that I haven't touched in ages since Provo came out with the E2 and CCR, so I got to cutting it up in little squares so I could use it with my new Lawn Fawn dies and matching stamps.

I just adore these elephants in the Lawn Fawn Love You Tons set.  I thought they would look awfully cute on a baby card...

Yep, I was right!  They are just perfect!

You would not believe how I had to scour for a sentiment for this card!  All my baby sentiments are on shapes designed to fit the cricut cuts from my CTMH cartridges, which I LOVE, don't get me wrong...but I just wanted a straight sentiment to fit this little fish-tail banner.  I ended up finding one in my MCT collection, thank goodness!  I added two little Grey Epoxy Bubbles on one end...

The matching background is created with my new Close to My Heart Dots Embossing folder that I got FOR FREE by purchasing two packs of cardstock this month!  I love how embossing allows you to do this great white on white technique.  What a great deal to try one free!   You can get yours on my website during February too!
