Bloggers Challenge #72: Same but different




Happy Friday.....WOW.....It's already November, and the weeks are flying. Before you know it, Christmas will be here. I am definately not ready for that. I work at Gymboree at the local mall, and they are already playing christmas music, The mall is decorated, and Santa is already there. Where has this year gone?
So, this weeks challenge was to make 2 cards, the same but different. Since the layout is the hardest for me, I went with the same layout, just differnt paper. Since Christmas is coming up, I chose to make some christmas cards. I may as well start here. I love this layout I used, which was inspired by a card KDC made.
The group of ladies at blogger's challenge always have some amazing cards. If you get a chance click on the "Bloggers challenge" banner and check the out.
Have a great weeekend!!!!

Supplies:

Stamp: TAC
paperr: My minds eye. SU
ink: Copics, memento
Misc: Brads

I can't decide which I like better because they are both fabulous. Great layout that works wonderfully with all the patterned papers you used. Great job with the challenge.

These cards made me SMILE! They are both super cute. I think though that the striped paper gets my vote for favorite. Oh by the way, Yes one of those cards is yours that I posted!
