This Week, Two Challenges

Hello all my blogging friends! This week I decided to enter my card into two challenges.

TSTR 77 and Mojo 206

Over at The Shabby Tea Room this week, the challenge is Week #77 – 'Birthstones' create a card or project inspired by the color of YOUR birthstone. My birthday is in December so my birthstone is Blue Topaz or Blue Zircon. 

And over at Mojo Monday we are asked to create a card using this pattern:

 

Well, I just LOVE blue and this pattern is so beautifully simple and elegant I was excited to get started.

The card is designed using all shades of blue using a lot of paper scraps I had left over and some cardstock from my Mariposa matstack.  I just adore the colors of those papers!

I punched the top and bottom edge of the top background piece giving it a frilly look.

The flower paper is white cardstock that is stamped with Rubber Stamp Tapestry’s Floral Filigree Wreath Set. Anyone who reads my blog knows how much I love RST’s stamps and how much I absolutely love tapestry stamping.  It is loads of fun to create cards that are never ever exactly the same!  The medallion is made with a scrap of the pretty pastel printed paper at the bottom of the card. It is also stamped with RST stamps.

Thank you for stopping by In a World of Craft. I hope you enjoyed your visit and will leave comments!
