365 Cards - Day 9 - Do That Decade: The 90's & Going Green with D2D

Welcome to another wonderful Wednesday at my blog! My first card up is for Day 9 - Do that Decade: The 90's at 365 Cards. This one was hard for me. I graduated high school and college in the 90's, but for some reason I couldn't recall any trends or fads! So after a little research and being reminded of "grunge rock" out of Seattle which then reminded me of coffee, I came up with this card. I grunged it up with ink, embossed/ sanded core-dinations paper, and torn paper, then "rocked" it with the sentiment and music paper (please ignore that it's actually Christmas paper! It's the only music paper I had!), and finished it up with this fab MTF Who's that Girl stamp! So what will the Decade of the 90's inspire in you?!?

Here's the other challenges I was inspired by for this one:
1. A Spoon Full of Sugar  - Vintage/Shabby theme: I think the "grunge" is pretty "shabby" and "grunge" is almost vintage!
2. Aly's Sunday Challenge - anything goes
3. Craft your passion challenges - anything goes
4. Creative Card Crew - no flowers
5. Let's Ink It Up - embossing + hand stamped image
6. Mojo Monday - sketch
7. PaperPlay Challenges - shabby chic/vintage
8. Stampin' B's Design Team - strike up the band (something music related)
9. The Crazy Challenge - lovely ladies

Next up is my sample for the current challenge at the D2D Card Ideas blog. This week's challenge is "going green" by using recycled elements. Well, I made that little silver shamrock out of a nut can topper! I also used the Lucky Bird image which is still free for everyone, so dropped by and get yours at
