Riley's Punches/Dies Challenge!


 Happy Tuesday!  Time for another Riley and Company new Challenge - this week, brought to us by DT member, Joy!   Her challenge this week - USING DIES OR PUNCHES!   For my card today, I used G.I. Riley and created a card using the cuttlebug - using both nestabilities and the scallop border.   Since this card is heading to a soldier wounded in Afghanistan who is here stateside in a rehab center, I wanted to keep it as masculine as I could but cheerful at the same time.  I went through my stack and chose some jillibean soup paper {love this stuff!!} with matching colors to Riley's uniform :)




Be sure to stop in and see what the DT have created using punches and dies!
You can load your cards for the challenge here!
If you upload your card to the SCS gallery or other card area, please use keyword1311!


Thanks so much for stopping by!

Big hugs,
Bigger Blessings!
