**TWO BY TWO** New Challenge with A Place To Start!

Happy March!  It's a new challenge at A Place To Start and our theme this month is Two By Two!  This does NOT actually mean to make a Noah's Ark card, it means use two of SOMETHING, ANYTHING on your project.

My card is a bit busy.  It has two mermaids, two layers of the frame, two pieces of seaweed, I couldn't stop myself.  There's things stamped on the background too but you can't really tell.


Just a few challenges:

31 Days of Crafting - Day Three - I Say Stupid Things

Everyone has a favorite Friend, right??  Mine is Chandler!  Friends is without question my favorite show of all time, so I wanted to make a Friends card during National Craft Month.  I'm posting it today because Friends aired on Thursday nights.

31 Days of Crafting - Day Two - Catching Snowflakes

Happy Wednesday!  Ya'all know I'm a huge Twihard, and when I saw this Sizzix die set, I couldn't not get it.  All I could hear in my head when I looked at it was Jacob saying "Ness was catching snowflakes" and I was like I MUST HAVE THIS.  So that's where the inspiration from this card came from.  Also, it's absolutely frigid today on the second of March!  Michigan!  Ugh!

    31 Days of Crafting - Day One - Love Within Limits

    HAPPY NATIONAL CRAFT MONTH!!!!  This is a favorite time of year for me.  New releases, lots of inspiration and SALES!!!  I try to make at least one card a day and I love to enter challenges and play along with sketches.  It's just a lot of fun!

    For my first card today, I challenged myself to use a new die set and no other stamps or dies.  That wasn't so hard, but when I die-cut my paper, it buckled.  That changed my trajectory a bit, but I'm really happy with how the card turned out.


    I know this is a terrible photograph and I apologize.  It's so gloomy and I was rushing to boot!

    Also, you can't really tell but that glitter paper is silver with pink and turquoise flecks in it.  The paper behind it is striped, foiled and watercolor-printed.  I don't like to do anything simple lol.
