flower soft – My Messy Craft Room

So I almost opted out of this weeks Crazy4Challenges challenge. This weeks challenge was to use “Copper accents” on a card, the problem was that I was sure I had Copper embossing powder, which I didn’t, I was positive that I had copper embellishments but all I could find was gold, silver, or pewter, but no copper. I was just about to call it when I looked in my washi tape bowl and guess what I found….. copper washi tape, so away I went. As I was digging around I came across some Flower Soft supplies that had been given to me a few years ago but had never used so I figured I give them a go as well.

I have been anxiously waiting to make this post. I had this idea for making a big sandcastle out of the “Woven Basket” die set and the “Castle Pop up” for a while now and I had to wait for this week’s Crazy4Challenges challenge to post it because you guest it, this weeks challenge is to make a card incorporating a sand castle, apparently its “Sandcastle Day” so get out there and hit the beach or craft room and make a sandcastle everybody.

If your wondering what I mean by “lake beach”, I grew up in a town on the North shore of Lake Huron, and although all the “Ocean beach” cards with their crabs and palm trees are quite lovely , I’m more likely to see frogs and cattails near the beaches I’m used to, so this card is dedicated to my home town of Blind River. Miss you like crazy especially when it’s this hot out.
