tsg150 I didn't forget

It's challenge time at There She Goes and this week our challenge is bought to us by Candice! She has challenged us to make a card or project using metal embellisments.

Now when I first started cardmaking I bought so much stuff! And being the slight hoarder that I am, I still have plenty of it left. Hidden away on a shelf is a tub of metal bits and pieces. I dug around in there and found this ribbon slide. Now it's been in that tub a while but I think it was from Making Memories. I could be wrong however!




Supplies: Stamps - There She Goes jungle out there; Inks - Versafine onyx black; Card - Stampin' Up basic gray; Paper - Studio Calico abroad; Ribbon - Papertrey Ink simply chartreuse; Ribbon Slide - Making Memories?; Clear embossing powder; Markers

I looped the ribbon behind the patterned paper and through the slide, holding everything in place with a bunch of glue dots. Oh and isn't that elephant adorable. I tried to colour his cheeks a little pink for the embarrased look but it's not showing up that well in this photo.

So do you fancy having a go? You could delve into the jar of brads I know we all have, or you could raid the sewing box for pins, buckles or a metal button ....


To be eligible for the giveaway, create a card or project using metal embellishments and then got to to the TSG Blog to add your name and a link to your project in the InLinkz that is located at the bottom of the challenge post. This challenge is open until the winner has been announced on the following Monday (April 9th). The winner will get a $5 gift certificate to use in the TSG Web store!
