Turtle Soup Mini Crop Grandparents Day Challenge

 

My challenge for the Mini Crop at Turtle Soup  is in honor of Grandparent's Day.  

My challenge is to create a layout, card, ATC, or altered item

that is based around a grandparent.  I created this layout of my mom with my kids.

 

 

 

You have until midnight EST on September 29 to complete this challenge. 

Have fun and I can't wait to see what you come up with.

 

Turtle Soup September Mini Crop

Come join us for the Mini Crop over at www.turtlesoup.scrappingturtle.com.  Starting tomorrow September 20th through Sunday September 29th.  7 new challenges along with the regular monthly challenges. 

 

A Little Bit Retro over at Cards in Envy

A little bit retro is the theme for the new challenge over at Cards in Envy. 

I have had this paper for a while and it was just screaming RETRO at me. 

I had fun making this starburst pattern card.  I hope that you will pop over to

Cards in Envy and check out the other inspiration and join in on the challenge. 

 

Here is my card:

 

 

Items used:

 

October Afternoon - Cake Walk

8x8 paper pack and Miscellany tag

Crinkled seam binding dyed with Glimmer Mist

Color Box - Dark Brown chalk ink

WeR Memory Keepers Sew Stamper

 

Remember, that for the Cards in Envy challenge, we only accept A2 cards (4.25" x 5.5") that are relatively flat to fit in a first class envelope for regular first class postage.  That means no lumpy, bumpy thick cards.
