PageMaps Contributor, and Be Inspired #47

Did you see the PageMaps Newsletter and CardMaps for September? I am excited to tell that I am one of the card contributors this month. I love using Becky Fleck's sketches for layouts and cards. This is the card sketch that Becky sent me...



And this is my take on the sketch. I used the new Lentil Soup and Talk Soup collections from Jillibean Soup. Don't you love these papers?



Supplies: Cardstock: Jillibean Soup Talk Soup on Kraft Patterned paper: Jillibean Soup Lentil Soup, Minestrone (butterfly) Rub-ons: Melissa Frances Button: Rusty Pickle Twine: Jillibean Soup Tools: sewing machine Ribbon: local haberdashery

Go and check the PageMaps site for more new card and layout sketches.

It is also time to reveal my card for the Be Inspired #47 challenge on Cuttlebug Challenge Blogspot. This week's challenge is to invite your guests to your party, and create an invitation using an embossing folder. I used my new Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels Eight to create a shaped card. And again I used some of the new Jillibean Soup papers.



Supplies: Cardstock: Bazzill Basics Paper Patterned paper: Jillibean Soup Alphabet Soup, Soup Staples Button: Buttons Galore & More Rub-ons: Melissa Frances Tools: Cuttlebug D'vine Swirl embossing folder, Spellbinders Nestabilities Labels Eight, Martha Stewart Scallop Dots edge punch Other: waxed cord, foam tape, ribbon

Gefeliciteerd met je plaatsje op de Pagemaps site! Je hebt het echt verdiend, want al jouw scrapwerk is prachtig. Wat een mooie kaartjes zijn het weer geworden! Het is dat ik geen Cuttlebug hebben, maar anders zou het me ook heel gaaf lijken om mee te doen met hun gave challenges.
