Navy Letter for James

I made these a long time ago for James.  They hang on the wall and are representative of all things Navy.  I used Jolee's dimensional stickers for the letters, and just cut and tore the papers to fit, inked the edges and glued everything on.  I have other letters to alter, I just haven't done it yet...

Paint Chip Embellishment Card SSSD swap

This card was a challenge for a swap, the challenge to use paint chips as part of the card to embellish the card.

I actually used five different paint chips on this card.  The ones that are leaf-shaped are my favorite.  The purple piece is a paint chip and then the bottom layers are two pant chips trimmed and layered, alternately...  Flowers are Prima flowers and have glitter brad centers.  I used a white pen to write "Friend" and do the doodle scroll and the white faux stitching.  This was a fun card to make.
