I have a whole pad of Basic Grey "Life of the Party" papers that I take out, look at, and put away on a semi-regular basis, so I thought they'd be perfect for this challenge.
Supplies: Papers all from Basic Grey "Life of the Party;" sentiment from MFT; Versamark, Vintage Photo Distress ink, and clear EP; wooden buttons from Michaels; bamboo crochet thread |
So, I've got woodgrain patterned paper, wooden buttons, and for a bit of a stretch I guess we could say bamboo is a tree? I'm glad I decided to add the buttons & thread, because all I wrote down in my handy-dandy challenge notebook was "woodgrain"...and completely left out the "focal point" part of the challenge. Not reading the complete directions? Totally not something I would ever flake on. Totally. Not.
As always, this challenge runs until Thursday at noon, so pull out your fun wood stuff and link up!
xoxo,
Jessi
What a super idea to use this DP for the challenge (and I really dug through my stash and totally missed that I could have used this!). Great idea for the kiddo paper too!
ReplyDeleteLovely card, Jessi. Great LO and use of 'wood'. I'll have to case this for my collection of 'men's cards.
ReplyDeleteI'd say the whole thing is the focal point huh? Hate when you miss those little details...
ReplyDeletedetails, details. ha. this is one rockin' card!
ReplyDeleteWho needs the details when you have such a lovely card, lol! Loving the orange layer, so cute!
ReplyDeleteWoodgrain is definitely the 'new black' at the moment! Love those papers (and focal point)!
ReplyDeleteLove the simplicity of this woody design!

ReplyDeleteI have wanted that pad just for the brown wood grain paper but then never bought it because of the rest of the designs left me blank!!!
ReplyDeleteYou certainly got the wood grain going on and I'd say the button and orange panel make the perfect focal point :0)
