Speedy Fox & Friends Challenge 218 - Use Mesh

 

Today's Speedy Fox & Friends challenge 218 is to use mesh on your card or project.  I wanted the mesh to be in a sort of bow tie formation under the flower, but I couldn't the mesh to cooperate, hence, it only shows on the top!  I used a new image released in the June 2014 blog hop by the SR DT - titled Great Flowers.  Be sure and join us for the challenge and, remember, there is always a prize of a stamp set to the weekly winner.

Card Recipe:

Stamp:  Great Flowers by Mark's Finest Papers, a Heinrich Co.
Paper: MFP White Heavy Premium 140 lb. CS;  SU Perfect Plum CS; Prima DP
Ink:  Copics: BG23, 13, 11, 10; Y38, 35 and 32
Accessories:  Pop Dots and Self-adhesive gems; mesh

Thanks for stopping by and hope to see you at the challenge!  Later gator!

Hi all and welcome to a new SpeedyTV's Inspiration Challenge!  I can't wait for you to see the most adorable inspiration pictures ever of three cute, cute guinea pigs!  I was given a white guinea pig when I was very young - probably 5 or so - and when my Mom came home and saw it - she had a tizzy and I had to give it back.  I was devastated - he was adorable!

In any event - here we go with the inspiration pics:

 

Look at these sweet faces and outfits!  I chose the little one dressed in yellow and black - but I love them all!  Hope you can join us for the new challenge at SpeedyTV - and, remember, there is always a prize to the weekly challenge winner.

Card Recipe:

Stamp:  MFP's Great Flowers (June 2014 release)
Paper:  MFP White Heavy Premium 140 lb. CS; MFP Black CS; Graphic 45 French Country (given to me by me sweet friend)
Ink:  Copics:  Y38, 35, 32, 08, 06, 04, 02 and 00
