Meljen’s Designs Challenge #83–Brads

Pin It

It’s time to announce the new Meljen’s Designs challenge and give you a look at the new images going into the store today. As you probably guessed, the challenge this week is to use BRADS. I used one of the new images, Pumpkin Crow, to make this card. (My brads are the flower centers.)

Here is a look at the new digital images going into the store today.

While you’re checking out the Meljen’s Designs store, be sure to check out the new pre-colored digis Melissa added earlier this week. Using precolored digis makes creating cards (or other paper crafts) a snap.

Stop by the Meljen’s Designs blog to see the projects using the new digis from the rest of the DT.

Have a great day!

Supplies:

  • Stamps: Pumpkin Crow (digital stamp) by Meljen’s Designs
  • Inks: Antique Linen distress inks
  • Papers: Neenah Crest solar white, Papertrey kraft & dark chocolate CS, Bo Bunny Forever Fall Collection DP pad
  • Tools: Sewing machine, Big Shot, Stampin’ Up edge punch, Spellbinders Nestabilities, Papertrey flower die, Copic markers
  • Embellishments: Spica clear glitter pen, Felt Works wool felt, Papertrey button twine, misc brads
