5 for $5 !!

Hello Everyone!!

Happy Monday!!!
Today I sent quite a longtime in my craft room. I created a card set for 5 for $5 Challenge in the Moxie Fab World .
5 cards sound easy....but the trick is to make 5 different cards for just $5.
When it comes to creating in small budget I favorite choice of patterned paper is the  double sided Quadrant prints, you get 5 different prints for the price of one.
So here is what I used for this challenge.....







Here is the price break up ..
Echo Park Papers------------2 x $.79=$1.58
4-Cardstock------------------4 x $.20= $0.80
Ribbon------------------------------------$0.50
 Pearls-------------------------------------$0.50
  Black pen-------------------------------$1.00
So the total comes to $4.38.

 
Now lets see the cards....


I did lot of fussy cutting! All the sentiment is from Border patterned paper.
The lil' extra thing I added is a bit of Diamond stickles.

CARD#1.

This fun card is also for the following challenges...
4 Crafty Chicks: Flowers.
Pile It On : All about "S"..( Stripes, scallops, stickles, silver pearls, stitching(faux)).

CARD#2.

I used the scorboard to make the faux dry embossed lines.

This Butterfly card is also for the following challenges...
Stamp, Scrap and Doodle : Things with wings.
Flutterby Wednesdays: Anything goes.
Crafting When We Can : Things with wings

CARD#3.


This card is for the following challenges...
Catch The Bug : April anything goes.

CARD#4.

Just modified the sentiment for lil' fun!!!

This card is also for the following challenges...
Papercraft Star : Anything goes.
Drunken Stampers: You're a Krafty one.


CARD#5.

This card is also for the following challenges...
Fairy Fun Fridays : Anything goes.
Papertake Weekly : anything Goes.

Let me know what you all think about these...
Thanks for peeking!!
