Whimsie Wednesday Challenge #77

Happy Wednesday Everyone!!

I'm hosting this week's Whimsie Wednesday Challenge!! I'm challenging you to use "Fun Flock"!! You just need to use Fun Flock somewhere on your creation.

My card features Sweet Cotton Candy Leah. As soon as Melyssa shared her with the design team I knew that I wanted to pull out my fun flock for the cotton candy. Unfortunately the pink flock I had did not coordinate at all with the papers I used and I didn't like the look of just using white. So I came up with this...create your own coordinating shade of flock by using white flock and applying chalk to it. That is exactly what I did here.

Recipe:
Paper: Neenah Classic Crest Solar White CS, Spring Moss CS (PTI), DP (Making Memories & Memory Box); Stamps: Cotton Candy Leah digi (Whimsie Doodles); Tools: Classic Rectangle Nesties (Spellbinders), Scallop Border Punch (Fiskars), Copics; Other: Satin Ribbon (PTI), Rhinestones, Foam Tape

For my project this week I created a belly band to go around a 24-pk of Crayola Crayons. I thought this would be a fun Valentine alternative...I remember when my son was younger and they couldn't give out candy treats at school. I picked up a bunch of the crayons back in the beginning of the school year when you could find them for only 25 cents a box. Gotta love back to school sales. The image is the the newly released Toadly!!
