Hello my stamping friends, happy Friday!

You know what that means

- Carole'Anne and Sandi's 10 minute or less challenge.

Our amazing Carole'Anne drew this sketch with her Digital Studio program

She is very amazing with this program by the way!

I love this sketch, nice and clean

Ok, so here is what I did with it.

Got "you know who" all geared up.

Chose my paper and stamps.

The Designer paper is from Welcome Neighbor - Free with a $50. purchase during Sale-a-bration,

The stamp set – matches the paper (now Imagine that!), LOL – GOOD NEIGHBORS, also Free with a $50. purchase during Sale-a-bration.

I added Melon Mambo, Old Olive and Whisper White

I stamped the house and 2 trees on scraps of Whisper White

Punched them out with the 1-1/4 square punch

I punched 3 1-3/8 squares in Old Olive to mat.

Mr. Nasty is very quiet this week, he received a message from Madame Villaine,

Mr. Nasty, j'aimerais bien de donner un petit bec!!

But he does not speak french, so he knows not what this says – Can anyone help the poor little guy out?????

I cut my designer paper to 3-7/8 x 5-1/8

Matted that to Old Olive 4 x 5-1/4

Tied a 16 inch piece of 5/8 Satin Ribbon around this,

attached all of this to my card which is Melon Mambo 4-1/4 x 5-1/2 top fold.

I used Teeny Tiny Wishes to add a little sentiment

IMG_3489
added dimensionals to the back of all of them

(I cut my dimensionals in half.  Still does the job – but I have twice as many).

I'm thrifty – a nice word for "cheap!, lol…

IMG_3490
still doing well, my card is all together

just one more decision, HMMMMMMMM

IMG_3491
which buttons to use, the Designer Buttons Playground have lots of cool colors and shapes.

IMG_3495
and here you go.  The yellow buttons won.  They are actually More Mustard, and the yellow in the DSP is Curry, but they were close enough.  It was the only color I had not used, so I thought I should incorporate it in there somewhere.

There you go.  Using punches really speeds up your card making, and I finished on time.
