SEPTEMBER KOTM IS HERE!!!

And I made a card within 20 minutes of opening the box! *wink* The images in this KOTM are so cute, and smaller in scale, so they're perfect for card-making. As soon as I looked at them and saw the little bird image, I remembered this great bedding set from Pottery Barn that my dear friend Melinda (aka Passionfruit) showed me last night at our CJ meeting:

And, it was perfect with today's Limited Supplies challenge: to make a card with ONLY 3 colors, and with white as the main color. Don't you just love it when everything works together like that? *smiles*

So, I chose white, red, and chocolate chip, and created this card:

I started with a standard card base in Whisper White, and stamped the sentiment in the bottom corner in Real Red. Then I stamped the bird image on a separate piece of white, cutting the image down to a 1 1/4" square, using the 'out of the box' technique. I matted it with a 1 3/8" Real Red square and a Chocolate Chip scalloped square punched with my purple Marvy punch. I tied the red ribbon around the card, then adhered all my pieces, using foam tape under the white square and the Chocolate Chip scalloped square. Seriously took me less than 20 minutes!

I'll be back in a bit with card images from last night's Creative Juices meeting! Thanks for stopping by!
