It is Wednesday which means… it is time to Hoedown!
Today’s challenge is brought to you by “Bad Connection”, which was free to those who participated last week but available to purchase HERE.
Our Challenge today is to create a project that incorporates OFFICE SUPPLIES. Examples: paper clips, staples, notebook paper, envelopes, post-it notes, binder clips, tape, rubber bands, postage stamps, mini calendar, etc.
I created a Z fold card using DP from The Paper Studio Four Seasons Pack, Pure Poppy (PTI), White (PTI), and Blue (Recollections). I embossed the front panel with Pocket Watches (Tim Holtz – Sizzix) and added a rubber band and paperclip for embellishment. Then I popped up my first sentiment and the image which I colored with Copics. The second sentiment is placed just behind the front panel so that it shows when it is opens. In response to “Remember when phones weren’t so smart?”… “Remember when we weren’t either?”
NOTE: Z fold
- Cut the base 4.25″X11″
- Score at 5.5″ and 8.25″
- The front panel is 3.25″X3.25″ at the biggest
- Decorate as desired
I am going to enter this card into the following challenges:
- Simon Says Stamps – Pin It
- Crafty Creations – Challenge #230–Pun Fun
Come on over to the Hoedown and go check out what my teamies have done!!

LOL! I love the inside sentiment. This image reminds me of a card I did yesterday with all the smart technology and I made a comment on my FB post about remembering when we had AM/FM Cassette Walkman’s! Your card is so cute and I love that you used a rubber band! Loving the red, white, and blue!

eeee Lyn….you know when you see a card and think doh!! I wish I had done something like that, well that is what I thought when I saw this, I had a copious amounts of office supplies ready to be used and only ended up using paper clips….boring!!! I love your use of the rubber band, your card is sooo cute and funny. (and soooo true) !!!
