We're All MAD Here - SOUS Die-Cut Challenge...

This week over at SOUS, the Die-Cut Team is looking to Alice In Wonderland to get our juices flowing...


The Die-Cut Challenge this week is "We're All Mad Here"...


------------------------------------------
I freehanded the card base...I tried to create a cut using Design Space but it was just easier to do it manually.  I used some Slate Polka Dot Ribbon that I had in my stash...added some die-cut flowers, a tag, a sliver of Bronze Glitter Paper and a little Red Enamel Heart...

---------------------------------------
I typed up an invitation and printed it off...added some Silver Shimmer Trim and the saying "We're all MAD here" at the bottom...I would LOVE to go to an Alice in Wonderland Party...can you imagine all the FUN!!!
---------------------------------------------
Here are the cut files I used - the tag and the flowers are from CTMH's Art Philosophy Cricut Collection.


Don't forget to go check out the rest of the Die-Cut DT and see what MAD things they've created...

Selfies Challenge with H2H...

This month over at the H2H Scrapbooking Challenges, we want to see ALL OF THOSE Selfies you take!!!

I don't have many "just me" selfies...but I found this one from 2013.

==============================
Here is a closeup...I used a couple of Wanderful PML Cards...the big 4x6 one in the center and then the tag and Slate arrow border are from a 2x3 PML card...I just cut it apart and stamped SHINE ON from Glitter Glam stamp set.  The "Everyday Life" at the bottom on top of the Gypsy stamped arrows is from For Always PML Kit. There's also some Wanderful Assortment in there too.  OH...and the "hipster" is from the Base & Bling Free Thinker Style Sheet...
============================
Here's a close-up of the top left corner as well as the base for my page...a Crystal Blue Polka Dot B&T from Wanderful Paper Packet with a piece of feather vellum from a retired promotional paper packet.  I added another Gypsy arrow, some Smoothie Striped Washi and a little snippet of the PML card arrows I used down at the bottom.  The Flaxen arrows are from Have a Happy Day stamp set...
Thanks for stopping by!!!

I hope you'll play along with our Selfies Scrapbook Challenge this month and show us your SELFIES!!! You have 'till the end of the month to link up your project!

Now...head on over to H2H and see what the rest of the DT Members made with their selfies!
