Introducing MMSC# 17, "Bunches of trouble"


Hello everyone, hope you had a wonderful week. Can you believe we are into September already and MMSC17? Today I want to show you my Midnight Madness Sketch card using this stamp from our Sponsor, D-R-S Designs, they are offering a $50.00 gift certificate. They will be sponsoring Midnight Madness all month and so you will be able to see even more great cards from the Design Team featuring stamps from D-R-S Designs. We also have a weekly sponsor for a $20.00 gift certificate from the '7 kids College Fund'. Thank you for donating some great prizes, I am sure the winners will have fun shopping.

I really had so much fun putting together this card, it has been ready for weeks now, I started it up right away when the stamp arrived in the mail, Yippy. . . what a nice treat from our Sponsor!!

There is also so much more going on at Midnight Madness: You may have seen that we have a new monthly guest designer Carol Hurlock and our own DT Charlotte has sweetened the pot with her own blog candy, hop on over to the Midnight Madness blog to get all the updated information!

I used Pastel colors and green gingham paper, some very nice green ribbon to border the image and nice layered green flowers. I popped the elephants head and the giraffes head also and coated it with the crackle to give it a wrinkle effect, I am not sure if you can see that here or not.

Thank you for viewing my sketch card as well as the other design team cards and as always I appreciate your comments. Also if you have not already signed up for my blog candy, there is still time to do that. The Blog candy offering is posted under this blog post.

Thank you, Jane "ThePaperAffair"

  16. I do recall that ribbon. I got it at Archiver's. It is a Photo Memory Store and they have chains in the USA. I love it there and go often. It was sold with several other coordinating ribbons in a package. If you get an opportunity to shop at an "Archiver's", don't pass it up!
