Now that summer is basically over, I bet a lot of people are longing for these lazy days again...even if fishing isn't their thing. Today I have used product from Daisy & Dandelion, which I won from Brenda, in a blog hop at Moving Along With the Times. I was very lucky to receive a decoupage kit along with matching rub-ons and stamps to complete a number of lovely cards.
Here I have made an aperature card, whereby I cut an opening in the card front. The decoupage layers are on the inside of the card, as shown here, and protrude through the opening when the card is closed. This all went together quite well, except for the aperature opening, I definitely need more practice at this...
As this is a first for me, with no stamping other than the sentiments, I am not sure which challenges I can enter, but I am going to try with the following:
Donna's Den of Crafts - Lots of Layers
Cooking It Up With Katie - Check out that Boy In Brown (recipe)
Charisma Cardz - Hot, Hot, Hot
Allsorts - Park Inspiration
Cards For Men - Long Summer Days
Meljen's Designs - Happy Birthday
3D Cards Challenge Blog - Sports (I believe fishing counts as a sport)
Super cute card!
ReplyDeleteThanks for Cooking It Up With Katie this week :)
Hi Joyce
ReplyDeleteLovely to hear from you and thankyou for letting me know about the card you have made. I love how you have done the aperture with the decoupage showing through and it all fits together so well. You have done a great job with it.
Funnily enough I was wondering about you the other day and whether you'd had a chance of using the kit yet, and here it is.
Perhaps you could also try Cutecard Thursday - no dies or punches, Meljen's designs - a birthday card, Corrosive - masculine card, Just cute bears - summer, Pollycraft - add something from nature. I haven't checked out their complete deets, but I'm sure some would fit.
Good luck with your challenges and happy crafting.
Luv Brenda xxxx
