Here's my latest creation. It is very different to my usual make. I normally make very simple designs and try to keep it quite clear. This time I decided to change that. Some of the paper I used was RAK from a swap I hosted at crafts beautiful. I am entering 3 challenges with this one. The first is forever friends which is to follow the sketch this week. The 2nd is sophisicat's which is ribbon and buttons. The last challenge (but no means the least) is crafty cardmakers which is using a stamped image. I am delighted that crafty cardmakers put me in their top 3 last week with the autumn theme.
Here's my challenge card for both Pollycraft Monday Challenge and Crafty Cardmakers Pollycraft wanted a furry friend so I chose their stunning dave the reindeer that they gave away. Crafty Cardmakers had a sketch to follow. Paper: Daisy and Dandelion Christmas Pad (red snowflake), gold mirror card, gemstone card Image: Dave the Reindeer from Pollycraft Colours: Promarkers I would also love to thank crafty cardmarkers for getting their prize (La Pashe) last week it arrived yesterday and I'm looking forward to playing with it this week.
This is a card I spent a long time deciding where the elements were going to go rather than my normal decide when I am ready for the next layer. This meant that the ribbon was attached behind the paper and looks better than normal and I could get the brad in the corner. This is very different to my normal Christmas card. I normally would use silver, white, red, green or gold. I've never used pink as the main colour so this was a nice change. The sketch came from Sketch Saturday and the colour was from Die Cut Dreams both of whom are looking for members of their design team. I've never entered a competition for a design team place but thought that as my cards are getting better I should give it ago as you never know what could happen. I actually made a mistake with the sketch saturday and copied the wrong sketch for the DT. Nevermind I instead entered they normal entry. Unfortuntely as I left it too late I don't have time to make a new card as it would be rushed. P...
