Cardboard and The Cat's Pajamas


Happy Friday Friends! This is my second post for today, so if you are looking for my Right at Home Scrapbooking projects, please scroll down.

This post is all about this week's Blogger's Challenge (using cardboard) and this week's sketch from The Cat's Pajamas. Please click on the colored links to play along. When I saw the star in the sketch, I thought of Christmas. So I pulled out my new My Mind's Eye papers and got to work. I also thought that the star would look pretty good cut out of corrugated cardboard, so I combined the two challenges. The main image is from the TCP Big Bear set and the sentiment is from the TCP Your Gift set. I used my E40 Copic Marker for a few highlights on the bear and then I fussy cut him out. I added lots of different stitches to all of my layers and then I added a button made with the TCP Button CutUps.

That's about all for tonight. Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit...Toodles! :D
