Welcome to Becca's Heart for Creativity blog! My artsy-crafty heart wanted to go crazy with MTTC's new theme! I didn't want to use an office supply like an embellishment but to really build most of the card cover with office/stationery supplies. Creative thoughts were better than the execution, however....see what you all think.
My Time To Craft's # theme challenge will start early on Friday, April 16, 2021 and will last a fortnight.
CARD #1: Today's Plan Birthday card=
link for MTTC's office/stationery supply (-ies) theme # =
http://mytimetocraftchallenge.blogspot.com/2021/04/challenge-455-use-stationery.html

Creative design process included these supplies found in or on my desk or table used for crafting=
1. regular and jumbo sized paper clips
2. two types of memo notes--yellow and sage green lined sticky notes and white lined memo page ripped from the memo pad
3. micro-thin washi tapes used as little banner flags on the jumbo clips
4. three colors of highlighters were used to create a border on the white memo paper
5. four colors of ink pens to write the birthday sentiment
6. three colors of permanent markers were used to create a dotted border on the card bases
7. a planner stencil sheet with different words or phrases had the 'today's plan' that I thought went well with the idea of a birthday celebration
