Use Your Lace! @ Little Red Wagon

 This week at


it's Chrissy's turn to choose the challenge and she's saying, "Use You Lace!" which obviously means she'd like to see lace on your project.

Now, when I went to make my card for this week, I pulled open the drawer with all my ribbon, trims and the like while chanting, "Please let there be lace in here."  And luckily, I did have a few pieces.  So, I made this.....


As you can see, I've got a lace frame around a pre-coloured image from LOTV.  I decided to print the digi on patterned paper, because I though it would be a nice look.  Totally didn't think that the paper in the typewriter wouldn't print white, so all I had was an outline of paper, not actual paper in the typewriter.  Solved that by printing the image again on white paper and then fussy cut it.  Stamped the heart on the paper and image was done.  

Background paper is Core'dinations cardstock, embossed with a heart folder and then sanded.  I love that look.  

So, why not give our challenge a go this week and join us?  And, if you'd like more inspiration, be sure to check out what the Girlfriends have made.

Okay, so ever since I started my blog (well, maybe not right from the get-go, it was probably a good six months or so before I realized you could change it from just "Leave your comment") I've tried to come up with something witty to type here.

*sitting with brow furrowed in concentration*...*staring at the ceiling while pursing lips*...*resting with head on hand while tapping foot*...

Nope, I still got nothing.
