Scrapalicious USA Challenge #10 Use the color TURQUOISE

Happy Wednesday everyone!

We have a wonderful challenge for you today! You can create anything you want but make sure you are using the color TURQUOISE!!!

This is my project, I created this card with Michelle in mind. She does a monthly Scrap Night and we always have a blast! She LOVES the zebra print:



This is the inside of the card. I had these stickers with no wrapper! So I do not know the brand!! :(
The sticker on the front is from SCRAPALICIOUS USA STORE for just $1, there are tons of more Jolee stickers for just a dollar!

I also used an EK Success border punch found at the STORE! Now, I really do urge you to go see all the different punches the store has. You get them regurlarly at Michaels and Joann's for $14.99 and up, and even with a 40% off you are paying more that what you can find them at  SCRAPALICIOUS USA STORE!

Now, don't forget to enter the challenge for a chance to win a certificate for the store and to take a peek at the wonderful creations from my DT sisters!!

Scrapalicious USA Challenge #9 Sketch!

Happy Wednesday!! Today is Scrapalicious USA Challenge day! This week we get the chance to play with a SKETCH!!! I chose the sketch from one of my favorite places to go to for sketches!! Pagemaps.com

Here is my card:



Now, if you like how I created my card you can find many of the materials at the Scrapalicious USA store!

The beautiful BoBunny Paper is only .75 cents a sheet!! 
and the punch I used for the sentiment is EK Success and it is only $7.50!! 
For this punch I cut it in half and cut a little piece off to make it smaller. You can't see the cut because I put the banner on top of the cut.
I also used a border punch that the store has for only $7! 

How is that for great prices!!!

Go visit the store to take a look at other AWESOME prices!!

and here is the sketch we have for you to use to enter the challenge this week!

We have a super cool price for this challenge. The winner of this challenge will receive a paper pack of Mosipis Paper! This paper is designed by a Mexican artist and the paper is made in Mexico! Scrapbooking materials are very, VERY hard to come by in Mexico. Prices are inflated at least 3-4 times!! and the creator and owner of this paper line, Chris decided that she needed to do this to make it more affordable for scrappers to find good quality materials in Mexico. To see some of the cards I have created click HERE! I am also a distributor in California for this paper line!  You can see the Buy It Now link on the side bar! I am lowering the price to 10 dollars for the stack. It is 8x8 36 sheets 2 of each of the 18 designs (thick paper!!) and it includes shipping!!! USA only!
