HOC: Shaped Cards

Hello Everybody!

It seems like just yesterday we were cheering for a New Year and now look!  January is over!  Time just goes too fast!

But one cool thing about fast moving time is that it is time for another challenge at House of Cards!

This month we are all about shaped cards!  I am super excited to see what everyone creates. :)

I used my Silhouette machine for this challenge.  I made a shell card.

I used Star Dust Stickles to outline the shell cuts on the top of the shell card.

This is what it looked like.  And this is awesome by itself.  But I thought it needed just a little something.

This is the inside of the card.  I wanted to be clever and have it say something like "You're Shelltastic!" but nothing really jumped out at me.  I figured this is one of those cards that it is better if I wait.  

I wanted to add something.  Flowers or ribbons?  I chose these little bitty shells that I have from Hobby Lobby.  I used hot glue to adhere them.  It adds a colorful touch. :)

So warm up your cutting machine or use a shape card that you haven't decorated yet and get to it! 

Be sure to stop by House of Cards to see the amazing cards from the rest of the team! :)

We can't wait to see what you make! :)

Until next time my friends...that's shaping up nicely! ;)
