Good afternoon, dear crafty friends! I'm a little late as I forgot to write my blog post last night and was working this morning...but as they say, better late than never?!...
We have a brand new challenge starting today over at Passion for Markers (don't forget that you can enter using any type of marker and any type of creation!) and a super simple challenge theme of 'Anything Goes'...
We're being sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps who are offering one lucky winner a $12.00 voucher to their online store...
We were lucky enough to get an image to play with and I picked out the ever so sweet Birthday Elephant and went with my preferred CAS style of card...
I coloured the elephant up using my Pro/Flexmarkers and then fussy cut him out, leaving a white border. I inked a piece of white cardstock with Broken China Distress Oxide around where the image would sit, wrapped a couple of layers of string around and then popped my elephant on using foam pads. I stamped a Happy Birthday sentiment and added some sprinkles before attaching to a 6x6 inch card base in a green swirl pattern - this type of card will be a great way for me to use up some of the patterned card that is too heavy for mat and layering...
I do hope that you can play along with our easy peasy challenge theme this week and look forward to seeing all of your wonderful creations! Right, off to stencil some more tulips...but if anyone asks, I'm doing the ironing?! Ha, ha!
Crafty hugs,
Gorgeous card, Lisa! I love the ellie on the inky background and a fab design too! Hugs, Juliexx
ReplyDeleteThis is such a fun card and your cute elephant is coloured so beautifully too. A super CAS card design which you are so great at.
