Dec. 21st GDT challenge for Scrap For A Cure

I should have already posted this but blame it on the "sights, sounds and even smells" of the Holiday season which so easily distract me! I had the exciting opportunity to come up with a challenge of the week for Scrap For A Cure!

A handful of Manufacturers are using really pretty designs on their packaging materials these days. One of my favorites has to be the packaging for Prima. In comparing the cardboard slips used for several different Prima products, I realized that each one is different in color and design. My challenge is to use product packaging on your cards or layouts that you create.

For the card:
I used the insert slip behind the Prima alphabet for my card base. Supplies used from the kit are the Jillibean Journaling Sprouts, ribbon, flower, leaf, 2 butterflies trimmed from the Webster's Pages patterned paper, Blue card used for lining inside of card, Prima Alphabet and AC Metallic Marker. Items from my stash: Punch for card's border, Shimmerz for the flower, Cat's Eye ink for Journaling Sprout, Smooch Pearlized Accent Ink and Judikins Diamond Glaze for the butterflies.




For the layout:
I used the insert slip behind the Jillibean Journaling Sprouts for layering behind the title. Supplies used from the kit are the Prima Alphabet, pearls, Bazzill cardstock, Jillibean Journaling Sprout, AC Metallic Marker, Basic Grey patterned paper and Collage Press journaling card and die cut strip.

I was reading on the SFAC forum that you live in Central VA. What part? We lived in Woodbridge for a few years and Orange for a little while. I soooo miss VA!
