Welcome
It’s time for our new challenge at Watercooler Wednesday. This week Marsha is hosting the Masculine “Anything Goes” Challenge.
I had a piece of the spot DP left over from a previous card and decided I wanted to incorporate it into this week’s card. Sounds easy, but it certainly made me think.
I started by stamping AI ‘Any Cake’ set in light grey on a scrap, water coloured with Distress Inks and fussy cut.
On another very small scrap, I added some Texture Paste to make a brick wall.
A stitched circle die cut was water coloured with a sky and green trees/ grass.
The racoons and wall were attached to the circle, once a piece was removed from the side and trimmed to fit.
As the DP was smaller than the card front, a section was cut from the bottom. The top section was then added to the card front with black and red strips. From the smaller section, Winnie & Walter – ‘Cheers’ was die cut and attached to the bottom.
The circle was added to the side.
To finish 3 balloons were added, cut from colourful scraps (SSS – Celebration Time dies), with gold thread attached and held by the racoons.
I was happy with the result and I hope you were too. Great to use some of the scraps that lie around.
Please go from here over to our blog and check out the great work from our Design Team. I hope you will join in our challenge this week.
Thanks so much for visiting
