inky challenge- anything but a card

this week challenge on the Inky Impressions challenge blog is anything but a card.  i used one of their super cute robin hood Christopher and made a little origami box to set him on. 

i used very sparkly paper by my minds eye to make the box, trimmed it with lace, made a wire heart that i backed with more my minds eye paper punched the edge of the box with a martha stewart punch around the page set, and added trims, flowers and buttons.  it's really easy and quick project that i found on youtube the original lady that demonstrates how to make it is sassyscraper and here is a link to her tutorial.  :)

hey everyone! this card that ive made today is for the inky impressions challenge "let's hear it for the boys!"  here's what i came up with this week

it's a  cute little cute stamp called Nicolas' big splash, and down here in florida it is still nice and warm, and perfect weather for swimming.  to color the llittle guy i used my copics and paper pieced his shorts.  i used lot's of scraps cut down into small stirps to make the background.  and used some webster's pages for the embellishments.

i hope you enjoy this weeks card!  and are having fun getting ready for halloween!  im making my kids costumes and will post some picks of what they look like when im finished!
