It has been too long since I've been able to take part in one of the 90 minute scrambles over at the Hero Arts Flickr group. But today the timing was right and I was able to join in on Janet's fun scramble.
The idea is to design, make, photograph and upload a card to the group in 90 minutes. 90 minutes sounds like a long time but it's amazing how quickly the time flies by. Today for the first time, I actually got to make two cards before time ran out. So please excuse the not so great photos as I was a bit rushed when I was taking them!
Stamps (Hero Arts) - Lattice Background and Right at Home
For the first card, I embossed the lattice background and applied distress inks (shabby shutters, faded denim, tumbled glass). The flower is one I had made a while ago and I added a gorgeous heart button from a pack of wood buttons which my friend Linda had sent me. The sentiment was stamped with walnut stain distress ink.
Stamps (Hero Arts) - Clouds Background, Woodland Creatures and Picnic
To make the background on the second card, I stamped the clouds on blue card using faded jeans distress ink. Then I added a strip of patterned paper and layered some ribbon (thanks again, Linda!) over it. I paper pieced the kite and coloured the raccoon with colouring pencils.
Hope you are all having a great weekend:)

LOL - we're both blogging the Scramble about the same time! I just love both of your cards and I'm so glad you're finding uses for the little bits and bobs I sent you! That silky flower looks perfect against the lattice background - that one is my fave.
Hope you have a great rest of the day, Heather - fun chatting with you earlier!!
