Treat Bags for RMH

Here are the bags I will be making for our Long Beach Ronald McDonald House. I'll put some chocolates, hand cream and lip gloss in these little Fancy Favor boxes. This is a hybrid of both stamping and My Digital Studio. I am just loving MDS and can't wait for the new improved MDS 2 coming later this year.

The talented ladies at The Paper Players have a Mother's Day theme this week so pop over there and see all the beautiful designs and ideas.

I have also found a new challenge blog Tuesday Alchemy that is very cool. It is open to ALL crafts so check that out as well.

The Paper Players Challenge - Ann's Color CAS Challenge - Time to Say Adieu

Yes, it is time to say adieu to you and you and you.. I can't believe how quickly my time as Guest Designer has flown by. How could 3 months seem more like 3 weeks? It has been such a wonderful experience for me to be a Paper Players Guest Designer. Not only have I worked with amazingly talented, funny  and wonderful women,  but I also had the opportunity to explore all the amazing, creative talent of all the challenge entrants. 

So on to the challenge...... This week the fabulously talented Ann has a color combo - very vanilla, cherry cobbler and gold  - as well as a Clean And Simple design challenge. I love these rich colors together and really had to work to keep the design simple. 

I started by embossing my background paper using Creative Elements stamp set and gold embossing powder. Since this design has quite a bit of pattern, I wanted to keep the rest of the card simple. I used My Digitial Studio and found a sentiment from Wishes and Greetings and sized it to fit my card. After cutting and mounting the greeting, I accented it with Gold Glass Glitter. A quilted cherry cobbler ribbon, cherry cobbler seam binding and glimmer brad finish the card. 

Join us this week for The Paper Players Color and CAS challenge. Visit each of the design team's beautiful creations and leave a sweet comment.
