CCC-Circles!

Well, that was a resounding failure! I tried to get Connor to name my post, and that is NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. So, I'll settle for the fun stuttery alliteration of Crafty Creations Challenges - Circles (#172), which is open until Tuesday night.
Supplies: papers from Fancy Pants;
embossing folders from Cuttlebug;
'feet' sticker from Hallmark;
EK Success circle punches & standard small Nesties;
hand buttons from Dress it Up!

Supplies: image from Phindy's Place;
watercoloured with Stampin' Up pencils;
standard circle Nesties;
EK Success circle punches;
Liquid Pearls;
sentiment from Paper Smooches; Palette Noir ink;
patterned paper from Echo Park; scrap cardstock
I just cleaned out a bunch of paper pads, and this one from Echo Park was one of them - if I'm down to only one or two sheets of an entire pad, plus dozens of little bits & bobs, time for it to go! This is a great way to use them up.
xoxo,
Jessi

Love all the circles on both (a fav element!). May have to put these ideas in use (embossing and rings) this week once I get a chance at my stash (like that will happen!).

How cute is that mouse on the cake, LOVE how you added the liquid pearls!

Look at all of those fun circles! Good for you for cleaning out your used up paper pads. I never seem to quite use mine up, so they just stack up higher and higher. I wish I could be as prolific as you!!!! I'd certainly have much less to clean up around here. :)

Hello my friend - love all the circles!! How fun and whimsical. Those little baby feet - too cute. Wish I were that little mouse - I could go for some cake!!

Marie said...

Just too too cute, Jessi. How about 'going in circles' for this post? I do this all the time...start to do something then have to back track because I forgot what I was going to do! Love both cards especially the great way to use up those scraps that we don't want to throw away.

Love the embossing on the first card and the mouse on the second is so cute! That's pretty much what I look like whenever there's a cake around... :)
