Caardvarks Challenge


Over on Caardvarks the challenge is chip board this is what they said,

Make a card using chipboard on your card front! Have your designs linked to us in the comments section of this post by October 1st. We'll upload your creations into the Chipboard Gallery along with the DT's cards.

I used paper from my Bitty scrap pads by Provo craft Heritage post, I covered a piece of chip board with patterned paper, and cut the 2 hearts out with my sizzix die cutter, folded my A5 brown leather look card in half then wrapped the pattern paper round the front and back and glued it in place. Then cut another piece of the brown card and matted the planer paper to that, I got some silver elastic with beads and sequins on and wrapped this round my hearts then added them to the card mat with foam pads and stuck this to the front of the card, then cut a smaller pieces of card matted the planer paper to it added happy birthday and stuck that to the bottom of the card . Aw just noticed the silver bits on the card are picking up the colours around them.

caardvarks micro mini card

This challenge is from caardvarks this is my first caardvarks challenge,

This is what they had to say: Make a micro mini card where your card front measures no bigger than a standard ATC -- 2.5" x 3.5". Deadline for creations is Midnight on Sunday. Post a link to your minis in the comments section of this post.

I used Basic Grey paper. I cut a thin panel and attached to the left hand side, cut a larger panel which was wide enough to slightly over lap the thinner one, printed off a transparency of a butterfly and attached it to the larger panel then added foam pads to the back and stuck it to the right hand side of the card also inked all the edges in brown. Then added a transparent Best wishes sticker.
