Crazy 4 Black Cardstock

Hey everyone, and Happy Friday/Saturday!! I hope you are ALL having a great weekend so far!! We are in the midst of moving, so it has been hectic to say the least!!

Anywho, it is time for another Crazy 4 Challenges, challenge!! For tonight's challenge, we are using Black Card Stock on our creations!! This week's challenge is being sponsored by one of my FAVORITE companies, There She Goes!! Jessica has donated a $25 gift certificate, so I hope that you will play along!!

If you decide to play along with us, all you have to do is create a card/project, and upload it to your blog and/or to your SCS Gallery using the keyword C4C133. Don't forget to come back here and link it on Mr Linky so that everyone else can see it too!

For my card tonight, I used the SUPER CUTE new There She Goes set, When I Grow Up. It was stamped on X-Press It Blending Card and then colored with my Copics. I layered her with So Saffron, Gray, and Black Licorice Card Stock. for her skirt, I paper pieced it with some Theresa Collins Carolina Breeze paper. My brads are from Michael's, and my ribbon is Black Vintage Seam Binding, and Charcoal Twine, both from the Ribbon Carousel. For my sentiment, I used the MFT Well Worn Greetings Die-namics, which I cut in half, and I also used the Solid Bracket Border Die-namics.

Well, that is it for me for now! Be sure to blurf around and see what my teammates have created for you to see!!

April Key Ingredients Hop

Hey everyone!! If you didn't already know, the 20th of the month is when we announce the new Key Ingredients challenge, and this month's challenge is SUPER fun! This month, our challenge is called Tag, You're It!! Tags are SUPER popular in the crafting community, so I can't WAIT to see you all playing along!!

Want to play along? All the information you will need is right here, and you can pick up an AWESOME blog badge, here!

For my tags today, I used the Tag You're It Die-Namics from My Favorite Things for my tag bases. I cut them out of the Brown card stock included in the kit. I added a strip of the paper from the Simple Stories FabUlous paper pad included in this month's kit. I added some ribbon to the top of my tag, also from the kit. For my smaller tag sentiment panels, I used the tags that were included in the kit. I used some twine to attage them to the base tags. My sentiment is from the Moka Betty set. To decorate the tags a little, I stamped some cookies from that set on the kraft tags.
