Gotta tell ya that this challenge had me a little stumped at first..haha.  I remembered I had cork somewhere, that's the kicker...where or where did my cork go!  Anywho, my search paid off!  I found I had both thick and thin cork in my stash. 


The thin cork was perfect to punch out a button..yes it almost ruined my punch...yikes!  I gently ripped the thicker cork.  I added some twine and a branch too. 


I got to use all my fave tools like my trusty Cuttlebug some Nesties and Embossing Folders.  One of my yummy MS deep edge & label punches, Prisma pencils & markers and of course a wee bit of Stickles!  Yes, I added some cheesecloth & some gems too.

We all got to use digis from the Valentine Collection from our sponsor Simply B Stamps!   Our winner will have their choice of 2 of the images used by the DT. 

I got to use "Sting You Lola".  Isn't she just too cute.  I think so. Can't wait to fill my treat box full of Valentine goodies.

Yikes, I didn't get to use my most favorite tool, ok machine!  That's right, no cuttlebugging waa waah...That means no embossing, Nesties or Dies. 

I made up for that with my punches.  All the papers are from my stash, I think the DP is SU but not sure.  I created my rosette with my MS Heart Punch and my Scor Pal.  Colored my image and wooden heart with my Copics.

Our challenge will run until February 19th, that gives everyone lots of time to join in the fun.  Hope to see you there!
