10 Minute Craft Dash!!!

Hello Friends!!

I came across a super fun NEW Challenge!!

Paulina of  PrettyPinkPosh.com started an Awesome challenge with her friend Ginny!!

We have to make a card within 10 minutes!!!

Fun! Fun! Fun!!

Here is my less than 10 minute card..

I finished this card in 8 minutes 42 secs......went with super CAS style.

First scored the cardbase at 51/2 " and then the place in needed the scoreline.

Cut a quick post it 2" mask and then randomly stamp the Technique Tuesday flower stamp.

Smashed( thats best word came up with) Distress ink stains on the center of the flowers.... I wanted to do it super quick and got some messy splatters :(

Removed the mask and stamped the sentiment(HeroArts).

Quickly drew some black lines and rounded the corner...Wow!!!

This card is for the following challenges..

10 Minutes Craft Dash: Challenge #1

Top Tip Tuesday: one layer card.

Paper Shelter Challenge : CAS.

It was so much fun... I made one card too!!

But for this one I used a pre-cut piece so I'm not sure this counts as 10 minute card.

I finished this card in 9 minutes 53 secs.. very close one!!!

Now I had the off- white piece of cardstock scrap on my desk...which I used for cutting a circle earlier.

So I used the negative diecut piece and stamped HeroArts-Newspaper background on it!

Used another Cosmo Cricket scrap from Last SCRS preview card. Stamped the sentiment and adhered the off-white piece with foam dots! Tied the charm with Jute twine.

Most bad move was cutting the mustache...it came out lil' messy..but it works!!

This card is for the following challenges..

Creative Card Crew: Newsprint/Maps /scripts.

Paper and Such Design: Just stamp it out!
