Everything but the Kitchen Sink Challenge!

Welcome to another Everything but the Kitchen Sink Challenge. Our challenge this week is:Yes! Toothpicks!! We cannot wait to see what you guys make! There are so many possibilities! So go here to play along! There is an amazing prize this week, too! :) Also, did you see the winner and domestic divas for the last challenge? Check it out here!

So here is my toothpick creation! I broke them in half and colored them with a chocolate chip Stampin' Spot thingy. I adhered them all together with Crystal Effects on to the card base. I then stamped some flames with my campfire stamp from A Muse and cut them out and adhered them with Crystal Effects too. I really like how it turned out! It was fun to work with the toothpicks. Just watch out for splinters! Haha! :)
I made the marshmallow with liquid applique. So fun! The snow hill is just Stickles spread on card stock. That cutie penguin is Hero Arts, of course!

I cannot wait to see what you all make! I know you will knock our socks off! So come along and play with us! Also, check out the other EbtKS girls cards for inspiration!
