I had a Crafty Buddy visit this weekend!!!!

I am so happy to share the projects that my BFF, Teresa made during her visits this weekend.  She has always been into the arts just like me, but her creativity was laying dormant for WAY TOO LONG.  I finally (after months of pulling her leg) unleashed the beast (LOL). 

She wanted to try her hand at this "challenge thing" I am always talking about.  So I asked her to pick a challenge and run with it.  Her first card was inspired by the Color Challenge at The Outlawz .  The CC011012 was to use this color palette and to add a feather!

And here is the fabulous card Teresa created from that inspiration!!!  She is a true natural!!!

I am going to enter her card into a few challenges . . .

1. Color Challenge at The Outlawz
2. Celebrate the Occasion - #46 Any occasion - use polka dots
3. Simon Says - Spots and/or Stripes
4. Dutch Dare - DDCC147 - For the Boys
5. Little Scrap Pieces - AG
6. Stampin' Sisters In Christ - #122 Use Something New
7. Anything Goes Challenge - #58 AG
8. Creative Craft Challenge - Resolutions

The hat was cut from Create a Critter at 5", the polka dots were cut with a circle punch, the bakers twine is from The Twinery, most of the paper is from scraps, the gems and pearls are from our stash, and the sentiment is from Whimsical Designs - Whimsical Fun Set.   Teresa got to experience inking a brand new stamp set for the first time, too.   I love how crisp and fun these stamps are on the card.  Beautiful and you are sure to find one to fit any occasion.  Stop over by clicking the link to view the stamps Stephanie is offering (at excellent pricing I might add)!!!

 Now be on the lookout, because I will be having a few more posts today to highlight more of our crafty weekend!!!!
