Crafty Pad # 16

The challenge this week is in a form of a sketch. :) :)

You may twist or turn it anyway you like
as long as we can see the basic sketch...
you may also add extras if you like. :)

Here is the sketch:-
This is my take on it.
I have used Faith ~sure


Her hat & belt are heat embossed.
She is coloured using promarkers .

I hope this makes sense.....I am still half asleep.

I wanted to try to do something different this week.
Since I don't have square nesties,
I measured the same distance from the outside edge
inside all the way round the front of the card,
marking it with pencil.
Used my craft knife to cut out the centre square.

Then I masked off a border using post it notes.....
High tech stuff here!
Stamped it with versamark,
then heat embossed with black powder.
The speckles are because I didn't use anti-static talc
so a few bits stuck on other bits than the edges.....


I used a larger square of white pearl card to make
next layer fixing it down with eyelets.
The next layer is black card, edged with silver peel off lines.


You can see the slight space
I have left between the two squares,
which when the card is closed you can
see the mirror card inside
So I can write inside the card I used white card
cut out & embossed using nesties label 1
I smudged the edges with red ink.



The challenge is open to anyone - but only those using a Crafty Pad stamp is eligible for the prize. :)

The prize this week is:-
some nice All Night Media chalks and some flowers and brads. :)


So come on over and join us at Crafty Pad & check out the lovely cards the other DT girlies have made!
