An FCCB Challenge Me Monday card

This weeks challenge over at Fantabulous Cricut is Fun with Puns. How easy, right.
I am not sure why this challenge was so hard for me. I think I was trying to find something perhaps other than the common things out there. All I know is the creative juices were not flowing well this week.


I ended up with two different cards for this one, but I like the card with the chair the best.



The unique thing about this card, besides that I love PB&J, is the purple strip background paper is a paint ship from Home Depot. I am hoping to do more things with the extra paint chips I have. 

Gotta get back to working on some projects for a blog hop next weekend. Have a great week. 

Here's How I did it....

Paper for chair card from Authentique
Card base for PBJ is from Campin' Critters cut at 4.25x4.57" with mat sized at 3.97"x3.66"
Chair/layers cut at 4" from Formal Occasions cart
Border punch from EK
PBJ/layers from Lettering Delights
Sentiments from My Scrappy Moms Charmed Life stamp set
Ribbon from Stampin' Up
Faces from PKS Paper Doll Faces and Simple Simon Faces

OK, I LOVE the PB&J card! It is making me hungry! I also love how you used the paint chip. How creative! I love all your stuff and am your newest follower :) You should enter the PB and J card over at Cricut Cardz Challenge at Cardz TV. We're having a stitching challenge and this fits the theme perfectly!
