Quilt Card

The challenge over at Mod Squad this week is "Warm and Toasty" which reminded me of sitting in front of the fireplace with a warm blanket when we lived in a colder climate (we have a fireplace here in Arizona but have yet to turn it on!).  So I decided to make a few quilt cards. 

Such fun!  

Supplies used:
Marvy punch
Hero Arts Coffee Cup Tags
Avery Elle Gifts Tags die
Lattice Circles embossing folder
Various cardstock and patterned paper
fun fur


Challenges:
SSS Anything Goes



Thanks for stopping by and I hope you're warm and toasty!

Hello and Happy Tuesday!

I haven't had much crafting time lately but here is one card I made which I'd like to share:
