Throwback Thursday Challenge--EDPD

This weeks challenge over at Emma's blog http://www.creativetimeforme.com/ is to make a project using Everyday Paper Dolls and the theme is Animals.

I know that fish are not animals but I really wanted to use this cut. I have been saving the packaging from all of my cricut cartridges and I decided to use some today for this card. I cut the fish bowl at 4" from the kraft cs, the water patterned paper and the plastic. To cut the plastic was cut using the regular blade all setting on max and multi-cut. I cut perfectly.



Supplies:

Paper: Crumb Cake cs, Dusty Durango cs (SU), Water patterened paper (CM)and Sweets Stack (DCWV)

Cartridge: Everyday Paper Dolls

Ink: Tuxedo Black (Memento) White gelly roll pen

Punches: Modern Label Punch (SU)

Stamps: Congrats (SU)

Ribbon: Dusty Durango ribbon (SU)
