I am still exploring the SCS website. Quite the place to try to find your way around on.

For the most part though I have found people to be very helpful when you have a question.

I have recently discovered the challenges and have enjoyed looking at them and the submissions. What a great source when your creativity is well....Not what it should be.

I came across the challenge last week for the LO I used today. I needed to make up a card quickly for a baby shower. I am still not quite happy with it, but Since I am still tweeking it.

I thought I'ld ask for a few opinions.

Which safety pin works the best? When I made the card I intended to use a little pink pastel one, but I have search and I cannot find one in my pile of embellishments.

I did however have a more earthy colored set with the blue one pictuerd above. I also had the large pink one at the right. The card is for a little girl. I like the big chunky plastic one because this old paper I had lying around had large Safety Pins on it. Need a vote, the shower is tonight.

I used alot of scrap stuff that I have either bought on clearence or before I knew anything about quality paper. I used SU regal Rose and barely Banana to make the Base of the card and the matting. I cut the triangles out first from the print paper then lightly traced them on the Barely Banana layer. Then lined up my old fiskars decorative scissors and folowed the trace marks to make a zigzag edge. I just decided I was a little tired of all the scallops lately. Then I mounted a square punched of white on A square punched of Barely Banana and trimed it with the same scissors. I had bought the tag circles from a store on clearance a year ago and thought I should finally used them. so I dotted the top half of the card and used the Outside circle on the bottom half. The letters were a MM ruboff lettering. Then I hand made swirly stitch marks randomly on the card. I mounted the Triangle portions to the card amking sure to line up the design on the printed paper. The sqaure was stamped with "flowers" in SU Barely Banana and "baby" in SU Regal Rose from the "Noteworthy" stamp set.

I sponged the edge of the square with "Bashful Blue" and threaded

the ribbon through it and around the card. The rivets are Provo Craft, and came with my Silent Setter. The dotted satin ribbon is Offray I picked up at Wal-mart, I loved the little baby colored spots. When tied the knot and added a piece of yellow trim I had picked up by the yard at a local craft store.

What do you think Do I need to use the mini Pin in Blue, or the large one in Pink?
