S’Mores Dessert

Some of my club members swapped 6" x 6" recipe cards recently and I was lucky enough to get this ‘extra’ swap from Vicki!  (See Vicki’s baby card here.)  Not only does the recipe look delicious (who doesn’t like s’mores??) but the recipe card itself is just too darn cute!   There are so many great details! 
- marshmallows are that puffy white stuff that SU! used to sell a few years ago 
- notice the ‘bite’ out of the corner of the recipe card (done with the scallop circle punch)
- the bear is paper pieced – notice his darker belly?

Isn’t it adorable?  I can’t wait to try this recipe!  Thanks Vicki!  And thank you Phyllis for organizing the swap!

Kristina’s 41st Color Challenge

These are difficult colors for me to work with yet I absolutely love them together and how sharp they look together.  This is my first attempt… I think I’ll play a little longer and make a few tweaks to this card.  What d’ya think?  I loosely followed the sketch challenge 214 on SCS and of course stuck with Kristina’s colors: Riding Hood Red, Basic Black, Basic Gray, and Whisper White.
