Fourth Friday Fun Challenge for February

skatesittingHi everyone!

Its time for another 4th Friday Fun Challenge

I don’t know about you, but I am ready to say farewell to winter!  We have had snow, snow and more snow.

So your challenge for this month is to make a “farewell to winter” project.  Either one last “snowy” card to send winter on its way.  Or maybe a fresh “spring-y” project to usher in a new season.

You have until midnight Thursday, March 4 to comment on this post with a link to your card to be entered into the random prize drawing.

 For my sample, I used the Lets Go Skating Cling set with images from Eat Cake Graphics  (I skate like this – but I don’t look nearly so cute!). 

 I colored the skater  with Copic Markers and cut out the image and the matte with the Spellbinder Labels 3 dies.

The sentiment is from the Anytime Sentiments clear setand it is cut out with one of  the Spellbinders Ribbon Slide Trio 2 dies.  These are nice because they are a little bigger than the other tag dies and can fit larger sentiments.  I made the white portion by embossing the die on white cardstockand then cutting around the inside of the die with a craft knife.  Then I just mounted that on top of a blue die cut.

So there is my good-bye to winter card…

 Oh, in case you are wondering about the challenge prize?  How about a whole pile of frosty papers, cardstock and embellishments?

It is a Frosted Winter Mini Kit with 32 6″x6″ pieces of Frosted Winter patterned paper,8 sheets of cardstock, 2 yards of ribbon and a collection of embellies.   Fun huh?

Speaking of fun…. be sure to check back next week as we start our Birthday Celebration.

Thats right – Paper Garden Projects is turning 2 (and its terrific – not terrible!). 

We have fun challenges, prizes and special store deals planned for the whole month of March.  Come join us for the party!
