This week's JUG's has a template challenge and it's sponsored by Lauren from My Time Made Easy. You can go here for all the deets on the challenge and the giveaway. I used the In Suspense template and scaled it down to 75% (because I wanted to use this paper and only had a partial piece left and of course no ink in my printer, lol!). I wanted to incorporate a little more brown in my project so I cut the back piece at 75% in brown, but then cut it again at 70% in the pink polka dot paper…perfect spacing for a "mat" look! This was really a last minute idea (putting this together), and it came together so quickly and easily! Perfect for that "Oh no! Tomorrow is so-n-so's birthday and I forgot a gift!" I would have filled the box with candies or chocolate covered espresso beans, but I didn't have any on hand and it's too late to get to a store. Of course I needed a little gift card to go with it 🙂
