50's Die Cut Challenge

Hi everyone! I am back with another challenge post today. It's for Stuck on You Sketches, and I forgot about posting this until today which is the deadline. I know that is bad! 
For this challenge you had to use something that was 50's inspired. I don't have the Nifty Fifties cricut cartridge, so I went on the Silhouette store and searched 'fifties'. I found this cooking woman that I liked so I cut it out. 


I tried to select patterned paper that was sort of vintage in nature. The sentiment is from a CTMH set, from the Artiste (I think) cricut collection. I heat embossed it with silver to make it stand out more. I didn't want to put more black on the card because I wanted the image to stand out on its own being black. 

The mat for the image is also cut from the Silhouette, once I have it out I just try to stick with one machine. I'm sure that something from the Elegant Edges cartridge would work too though. 

Hope you like my card! I was thinking that it would make a good notecard or maybe a birthday card. 



Project Life: travel version: StuckOnUSketches Challenge

Hello again! When I got home from my trip, I was overwhelmed with how many pictures that I had taken and was wondering how I was going to scrap them all! I decided on doing a mini-project life style album, travel edition. 
This first page is about our day at the Victoria Falls bridge in Livingstone, Zambia/Zimbabwe. 


I used a lot of Sn@p collection for this page. I added twine from Close to my Heart to the title card and some washi from a Studio Calico kit. But the rest is from the collection I believe. 


The requirements for the challenge were to use twine on a project life spread. Go over and play along with us! Thanks for stopping by!
