A Card I Can't Show!

I made a card this weekend (I know, 2, shocking!) and I really want to show it but I can't yet. It's for my bf who is a follower of the blog and he will peek! So soon ...

Fathers Day Challenge from MPS

"Enjoy The Moment"

This is my card in response to My Pink Stampers challenge for fathers day. Not only did I get it done this weekend! I stayed up late tonight to do it! :) For my dad this is getting a bit of a smart remark on the inside that will say "because I don't have to be this nice everyday!"

Recipe:

1. Corrugated brown card stock for the card base.
2. Lime green card stock cut as the next layer and ran it through the cuttle bug.
3. Button paper (I can't remember the name!) cut to fit just inside the lime green.
4. Using the lime green scraps I stamped "enjoy the moment" on a square and did a layer in a slightly darker green.
5. I cut out the kitchen timer from "From My Kitchen" also using scraps.
6. Added ribbon and button details in matching colours.

First Post

My First blog post ever. YAY!

I'm actually starting this blog to take part in a contest that this wonderfully talented gal named Pink Stamper has going on. Now the question is will I get the card done in time for the contest. I'm got a busy weekend ahead with all sorts of stuff going on so I will atempt to make time to create. So lets hope I get a card done in time!

I'm not 100% sure how to really blog ... my goal is going to be to just post projects, take part in challanges from other peoples blogs, and to really take the time to use the insane amount of crafts stuff I own to create a little excitment in my busy world.
