Festive Friday Challenge - National Best Friends Day


It's time for another Festive Friday Challenge!  Every second Friday we post a challenge for you with a specific theme and an Inspo List of 10 items to choose from to create your project.  We encourage you to create a project based on the theme and Inspo List and then post it using at least 3 items from the inspiration list.


This week’s challenge FF #110 - National Best Friends Day



Your goal is to simply use three or more items from the inspiration list on your project and link up! #festivefridaychallenge  At Festive Friday, you do not need to actually celebrate the occasion. I hope you’ll make a card, scrapbook page or 3-D project and join us. You don’t need a blog to enter Festive Friday. Check out this link on how you can play along with this challenge. If you want help entering, please email me at stampinwithmelva@gmail.com and I’d be happy to help you!   

For my card this week I used the amazing Hues of Happiness Suite. I selected feminine, pink, friendship sentiment and patterned paper from the Inspo List.  What would you have chosen?

I am in love with this collection - much to my surprise.  The Designer Series Paper is stunning and I used just a little bit of it for this pretty card in Melon Mambo.  The stamping on the background added the right amount of detail.  What do you think?



Instruction

  1. Cut Melon Mambo cardstock 5 1/2" x 8 1/2" and score at 4 1/4".  Fold on scoreline to form card base.
