No stamping and sketch...




The challenge this week at http://lotstodocallenges.blogspot.com/ is to create a card without using rubber stamps. I have used the Christmas design papers and extras that were included in this month's Crafts Beautiful magazine. I also used the challenge sketch at http://fridaysketchersblog.blogspot.com/ to create my design. The mock ribbons are the striped backing paper cut into strips. I must admit I wasn't sure about this sketch when I first saw it but I am pleased with the way it has turned out.




Materials used:

  • Papers from Crafts Beautiful Magazine
  • Burgandy card
  • gold brad
  • fine gold peel off

Hi Ann - lovely card - it's hard to do a card with no stamping isn't it (lol).
Haven't been ignoring you - I've no heating downstairs and no computer upstairs - bbrrrrrrrrrrr!!I have sorted one of my problems out and may be able to do the other - in which case I won't be bothering you.
