Firstly, my apologies for being absent for so long (again!) and a HUGE THANK YOU to my lovely Crafty Pad teamies Leesa and Dawn who have helped me out of a pickle this week, they really are so thoughtful and I owe them one! ;)
This week's new challenge at The Crafty Pad has been chosen by 'moi!' It's one of my favourite techniques, and that's challenge #179
PAPER PIECING
(Not to be confused with paper piercing!)
Our fab sponsor this week is
with a £20 voucher to spend in their store for one lucky winner, chosen at random from our entries this week!
I won't bore you with details, but things have gone a bit messed up for me in the last couple of weeks and one of the consequences has been that my mojo has gone on extended hols so I am really struggling with my lack of creative skills and am somewhat disappointed with todays meagre offering...anyway, with my apologies, here it is:
A simple rocker card made using the fabTCP LOLLY POP image which I paper-pieced using Pink Petticoat digital papers.
I added some tiny gems to the droplets featured on the green top layer, and kept it simple with a kraft cardbase and the watermelon DPs. I added some cheesecloth, lime green ric rac and a simple birthday sentiment to finish, and will add the finished card to my 'cards needed in a hurry' box.
The other DT girls on Team B have some wonderful inspiration for you on the challenge blog, so please pop over and join in the fun this week.
I will enter my card into the following challenges:
- Secret Crafter #194 - Food & Drink.
- Cardmad Fairy's Digi Days Challenge #37 - Summertime.
- Crafty Anns #69 - Paper Piecing.
- Pattie's Creations #48 - Summertime.
- C.R.A.F.T. #163 - Summer.
- Digi Doodle Shop #116 - Summertime.
- Papercrafting Journey - Summer.
