Melanie from BBTB2 is also hosting a challenge: butterflies! What a great opportunity to combine both challenges. The patterned paper is from Stampin' Up! What I love about it is - aside from the patterns -- is the paper is lightweight but firm. Click here to check it out:

~This Weeks Challenge~

Mix and Match

Create a project using at least 3 patterned papers

To qualify for the prize, be sure to use at least 1 Cricut cut on your project and if it's not obvious, let us know what cartridge you used.

One of my favorite brands of paper comes from Crate Paper -- I love this Farmhouse Collection line...And using three patterns from the same line means everything matches -- so it is easy to take a risk and use patterned paper with your cricut. Also, I used Creative Cards cricut cartridge. Here's my tip -- the size dial should be on 5.5 for an A2 standard sized card -- and my border cut did need to be trimmed to fit the card. This is how the card looks flat:

BBTB2 Purse Challenge

At BBTB2 we have a purse challenge going on, hosted by Diana L. from DL.ART. And even though the humidity is killing me, leaves are starting to turn, and I am in a fall mood. I wanted to use my new Tags, Bags, Boxes & More2 cartridge, but to my surprise there were no purses! So I went old-school, back to my Tags, Bags, Boxes & More. It is still a must-have cart!
