QKR Stampede and CAS-ual Fridays

**For the Cupcake Inspirations Challenge 200th Blog Hop Celebration, Click HERE!**
 
Two more challenge cards to link up.  First one is for QKR Stampede #28:  use three of something.  I used 3 wood buttons (SU!); rooster stamp and happy father's day stamp are both SU! as is the honeycomb (or in this case, chicken wire) background. Stitched stamp is A|S.
 
 Next card is for CAS-ual Fridays Challenge 92: wallpaper.  stamp your own background paper.  I used a SU! flower stamp and repeatedly stamped it on white paper and then colored them in with copic markers.  Little thank you stamp is also SU!  my stamped paper is layered onto core'dinations black magic paper which I tore and sanded the edges which match my coloring.  I just love that paper. :)

  3. They are both wonderful, but I must admit, the first one stole my heart! What a great card! Love the sanding and muted coloring. LOVE those wooden / light tan buttons!!!

    The roses are beautiful too. I dont know how you got your copics to look like that. It almost looks chalked!
    gorgeous!

  7. That chicken wire texture made me double take before I realised it was hexagons :lol: Both are really nice - I'm thinking I should actually use some of that coredinations paper I've got in my stash...
