Card For a Few Challenges

Hello!  Have you had a good weekend?  It was relatively quiet here and I even managed to get in a little crafting time.  I made a card for a few challenges I like to do.  I combined them this time because I wasn't sure I'd get to them all otherwise and I hated to miss out.  My card is for the January Sketch For You To Try on Jen Del Muro's blog, Elisabeth Bell's World December/January Challenge (Tic Tac Toe), 7 Kids College Fund Challenge #38 (try something new), Basic Grey Challenge #60 (something new) and the Corrosive Challenge #140 (use something brand new).  There were a lot of similar themes so it was easy to put them together.

Here is the January SFYTT:

Here is my card for the challenges:

I started with a 5 x 7 card base of SU Certainly Celery and layered with Almost Amethyst and patterned paper from the Basic Grey Sugar Rush 6x6 pad.  My main "something new" (and still unused) item was my new Elisabeth Bell Belles 'n Whistles stamp, Patches 'n Braids.  It can be found in the 7 Kids store here.  I stamped her on Cryogen White with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored her with Copic markers.  I added a bit of Stickles here and there for some sparkle. The image was cut out and matted with Spellbinders Petite Ovals Nestabilities. For the Elisabeth Bell's World challenge, I chose Column A of the tic tac toe - flowers, lace and pearls.  I added some new flowers with pearls that I picked up in the $1 bin at Michael's yesterday.  A bit of crocheted lace and some adhesive pearls finished my card.  Phew!  I think I covered everything!

Thanks for stopping by!  Enjoy what's left of your weekend and I will see you tomorrow!
