Krafty Girls Challenge #9 - Mission Impossible

Happy Tuesday, everyone!! I am so excited to announce that I'm now a Design Team Member for Krafty Girls!! I am so honored to be working with such amazingly talented and inspiring crafters!! The challenges are creative and fun...I hope you will play along with us!!

The theme of Challenge #9 is Mission Impossible. We want you to create a paper craft project that someone helped you create. It could be that they helped you design, cut, emboss...anything that helps you finish the project.

I recruited my Mom to help with my project  :) She can sew absolutely anything!! I asked her to stitch the Spellbinders Grand Rectangle to the base of the card. I am still a novice at sewing and my lines are always wonky. Her lines are perfect, even using my cheap sewing machine instead of her nice one. Thanks, Mom!! :)

The paper is from K&Company Brenda Walton Flora & Fauna stack. The base of the card is a Spellbinders Grand Scalloped Rectangle. The bird and cage are Spellbinders Bird Sanctuary dies, inked with Victorian Velvet Distress Ink and popped up with foam tape for dimension. My birdie escaped his cage so he could snag a forgotten French fry...

Isn't this sentiment fun??!! It's from K Andrew Designs newest stamp set, Beautiful Thoughts:
