10 Minute Craft Dash #28



Hi there!
Just popping in today to post the card that I made for the latest 10 Minute Craft Dash,
where the challenge is to create a card using the three colours in the image above.

I thought these colours would be perfect to make a scratch and sniff card
for my online friend, Gina, as a thank you for the sugar-free Jello powder
she sent me this summer for Stamp-a-faire.
Thanks again, Gina!


I used some My Mind's Eye patterned paper for the background.
I diecut some rustic cream cardstock using one of my MFT dies.
I stamped the leaves with Ripe Avocado ink.
For the cherries, I mixed some red Zing embossing powder with some sugar-free Jello mix.
I stamped the cherries in versamark and then in pure poppy ink. Then I heat embossed it.

And my time.... 9:48.1.

Success! But, I didn't have time to add any stitching.
Oh well....

So head on over to Paulina's blog to check out what the rest of the DT made for the challenge.
And you'll probably want to play along, too..... here's the prize that's up for grabs:


Thanks for looking!

It is "totes adorbs" as they'd say on Disney Channel. :) And, I'm kinda glad I haven't been able to read any blogs lately - I was so surprised when I got it in the mail yesterday! :) Thank you, Leigh! I was happy to mail that jell-o to you!
