Stars at night...

The stars at night is the theme at http://cutecardthursday.blogspot.com/ this week. I chose to do a Christmas theme (yes I'm getting pretty fed up of Halloween now!).

I decided to use this brilliant sketch from the new challenge site at http://thesecretcraftersaturdaychallenge.blogspot.com/. I only found the site recently when blog hopping but it does look like they have had some interesting challenges over the last few weeks.



Materials used:
  • Penny Black stamps from Christmas clear set
  • Circular sentiment stamp from Papermania clear set
  • Patterned papers (Dovecraft??)
  • Dark blue card
  • Gems and organza ribbon from stash

Can you spot the happy accident ...

If you can see it please let me know in your comment!!!

Well I thought you would all spot the accident - it wasn't a mistake that turned into a happy accident. It was the swirls on the yellow paper - as I was sticking the topper on I realised that if I just lowered the top slightly the swirl framed the circle sentiment. I mean if I had tried to plan to do that and measured it all out etc I probably wouldn't have succeeded.
You're probably all going 'oh is that all?' but I was dead impressed with it this morning. Hmm I know I lead a sad life!!

Glad you spilled the beans. I couldn't see any accident. I did notice the 'frame' but thought it was something you had done deliberately. Great card - I'll just have a peek at the new challenge site now.

Love your card, lovely image The only happy accident I can see is the circle on the paper ties in perfectly with the sentiment. Thanks for joining in this weeks SCSC!
