Throwback Thursday




Good morning all! It's  the start of the nice long weekend...YAY! I will be going "up north" to my sister in laws cabin and I can't wait! It's so pretty up there. Todays card I made to enter into My Creative Time's Throwback Thursday challenge. This time the challenge is CRICUTLESS....and the colors PURPLE, ORANGE, GREEN, and BLACK.
I bought this SUPER cute Bo Bunny kit last year and didn't get to use it so I pulled it out and used it for this challenge. There are some really cute things in there. I changed the base of my card from what was in the kit and used my sewing maching to sew a line around the card. The scallop frame, mat, and bat were punched out from the paper kit. I used some distress ink and inked around the bat and the scallop frame. I tied a bow using My Craft Spots crinkle ribbon and added a brad around the center that I picked up at Wal-Mart.....97 cents for a 6 pack!!! To finish I attathcehd the bow using the brad and stamped the sentiment.
Thanks for looking and have a FUN and SAFE weekend!
