Happy Monday!

I’m just going to jump right on in and get to the goods.

Sigh, I love new paper.  While the MME Lost & Found line has been out for a while, I am just getting to play with them.  I got a smokin’ deal on four 6×6 pads from ScrapAce recently.

And this is where my clean and graphic style won’t let me be 100% shabby chic.  Ha.  The papers scream shabby, but somehow I turn them into a graphic card.  But I like it that way.  LOVE those shoes and saying from the to the moon & back Unity stamp set.  I keep going back to this kit of the month OVER and OVER again.  It is a definite must have.

I decided to play in the Stamp It! Cards Week Challenge in the Moxie Fab World.  This is stamping at its simplest, but I love the repeated pattern of the shoes.  Hope you do too.

stamps: to the moon & back {Unity}
patterned paper: Lost & Found – Market Street {My Mind’s Eye}
ink: Versafine black {Tsukineko}
die cuts & punches: scallop sentiments border punch {Fiskars}
other: black twine {The Twinery}, crochet trim {Offray}

    I love it – the perfect blend of shabby & graphic. Maybe that should be a “new” style category 😉 It totally works for you!

    Great style, Lisa! I love the repeated stamped shoes. I also really like how you made your sentiment panel and put different edging on each side. Too cool:)

    Gorgeous card! Your ‘shoe background’ is awesome especially on that wonderful paper! I’m with you on the shabby, I totally love it, but my attempts always end up CAS, that won’t stop me from trying though.

    I LOVE this combination of pink, black and white! It’s perfect for this card. Yes, those papers are yummy, but so is the card you made from them and all those shoes!

    This card is freakin’ fantastic, Lisa! Did you cut up the shoes? How on earth did you get them to zigzag in that pattern? Love it!
