This month I created 2 cards using the Jubilee Paper (X7181B) pack.   




For my first card, I used the "You Are the Best" image.  I love the thick lines of the stamp.  It makes it easy to trim.   I stamped the image twice on pattern paper from Jubilee.   Then I cut out the center piece and layered it onto the top.  (see picture to the left).  I created a longer 'ribbon' with cranberry cardstock and stamped it with the chicken wire stamp from Distressed Backgrounds.  I layered it with another 'ribbon' from one of the Jubilee zip strips.  







For my next card, I used the "You've Got a Friend in Me" stamp.   I cut a shape from the Art Philosophy cricut cartridge and stamped the imaged in Cocoa Ink.   I stamped the image a 2nd time in Twilight ink and cut out the word "FRIEND" and layered on top of the cocoa image.  I used a piece of cocoa cardstock from the new Paper Fundamental Basics (Z1939) pack that has a resist texture on it.  I layered this piece over a piece of burlap ribbon.  This gives my card a country feel.  For both cards, I used the Durables Triangle Studs (Z1928).




I hope you enjoyed my two cards!   Now it is time to hop on over to Judy Burger's blog and see what she has created!
