True Love for the Nachos

Happy Tuesday, Nacho fans!  It's time for another Nacho Average Sketch challenge:


I think I have Valentines on the brain.


I admit, it's a liberal interpretation of the sketch, but I think maybe it still counts?  If not, I'll have to go to stampy jail for a while : )

This is a quick and easy sketch so run off to your stamp room for 15 minutes and make a card, then be sure to share it with us at the Nacho blog.  Have fun!

Supplies, all SU!
Stamps:  Hearts a Flutter, Follow My Heart, Gorgeous Grunge
Ink:  Sahara Sand, Coastal Cabana, Melon Mambo
Paper:  Melon Mambo, Whisper White
Accessories:  Hearts a Flutter Framelits, Rhinestones, Dimensionals

Perfectly Wonderful Nachos!

Happy New Year, peeps!  Can't believe it's already time for my last blog post of the year.  Well, we're ending on a high note with a wonderful color combination courtesy of Nacho Average Challenges!


Who doesn't love pink and green together, amirite?  So here's what I came up with:


 I kinda feel like I threw the kitchen sink at this card, but the sketch I chose was pretty involved.  Still, three sets of Framelits, two stamp sets and two different packs of patterned paper, ribbon and Candy Dots...there's lots going on here.  I don't have any Strawberry Slush ribbon, so I rooted through my stash and found some kind of pink grosgrain...not even sure if it's SU, but probably.  It's not an exact match for the Strawberry Slush cardstock but I thought it worked okay.

Anyway, when my family was out here in July, we went to Paris and I saw a sign taped in a shop window that had that same sentiment on it.  I loved it so much that I wrote it down so I'd remember it, and then when I saw Perfect Pennants I was so excited to have it in stampy form :)  So now you know why I paired it with an Eiffel Tower.  And how cute is that hearty Eiffel Tower?!

Check the Nachos blog for more beautiful projects, and then let's see what you've got!  Have fun and Happy New Year!
