Well I didn't have time to do this challenge until later in the day. And then I didn't have time to post it here until now. Its one of the joy's of being a parent. Stamping is done between activities, schooling, and all the other things that make up life. So for this card:

CS: Creamy Caramel, Real Red, Banana, Chocolate Chip( kinda cheated with this one), water

color paper.

Ink: Memory Black, Distress Ink in Tea and Vintage Photo

Markers: SU Real Red, Creamy Caramel, Cocoa, Tombow- 837,847,126,173,879,969,

Other: Walmart polka dot ribbon, gold brads, Krylon Gold Marker

Stamps: Lockhart

The card is a simple 4 1/4 x 4 1/4. The mat started with a 4"square piece of red. I lined one side with 2-way tape. next I cut lots of 1/4"strips of all three colors. I lay them out along the length of the red mat so that the tops were stuck to the tape. After I was done alternating the colors, I started on the horizontal, weaving the Papers over and under. Next when I was happy with the result I gently lifted up the bottom and taped them. I then took a second 4" square red mat and cut the square window. I lined it with tape and placed it over. I aged the weave with Dye ink and then lined the edges with gold marker. The image was stamped, colored with marker, water colored over and then cut out. I added Sakura Stardust to the small dots on the bowl and Sakura Glaze to the lip of the bowl. It was then mounted on the white and chocolate mat on top of the ribbon. Brads were added to the corners, and the greeting applied. All of this was mounted to the Caramel card base which I also aged with Tea and Vintage.

Hope you enjoy my project for today and enjoy the rest of your day!
