Crafty Pad # 19 Gatefold Card & Blog Candy

This week over at Crafty Pad
we would like you to make a Gate fold card -
any embellis can be added that you wish to use. :)

After making a gate fold card at card class
I am loving making these cards just now!


This Challenge is open to everyone.
If you enter without using a Crafty Pad stamp
your name will go into the Draw once ~
Nut if you do use a Crafty Pad Stamp
your name will go in twice!

We would also like to know what your
Favourite Crafty Pad stamp is...

Well I love Two of the stamps
so much that I couldn't decide between them !!!


And I love Crafty Pad Stamps
So I have made two!

The first one is using My fave Belinda Cupcake
I used ribbons from Crafty Ribbons.
I cuttle bugged the chocolate card stock.
Then buffed it with a file.

Belinda is coloured using promarkers
and glitter on the cupcake
and on a few bits on Belinda.



I used pink flower eyelets and
four different bits of ribbons to tie the card.
I have added a wee bubble sticker in lime green.


The flowers are Bo Bunny.
With a button Brad from Poppicrafts.

Inside I have included a pull out recipe tag
for Vanilla Cup Cakes!
The ribbons in here are all Crafty Ribbons
left over from my Cupcake Challenge.

The second card is my all time Fave Butterfly!
Because as a DT I get all the images as downloads
I can use them in any size I want them !
So this is perfect for doing this card.
You get FOUR butterfly stamps you can layer up
( not tried that yet)
You also get the wee flourish
The scroll border and
a lovely verse!
The sheet of stamps is A5


If you pop on over here..........
you could be in with a chance of wining this set
of butterflies as blog candy!!!!

First of all I stamped with See D flower stamp
in versa mark, then used shimmery chalks
to add colour adding a pearl in the centre.

A smaller flower stamp was used with pink
ink then coloured in sukura pen.
A touch too pink but its ok.

I cut the butterfly in half and used silicon
to glue it on to the gate card.
It was coloured with promarkers and chalks.

Inside is the Butterfly verse that comes with the stamp set.
This is stamped onto pink shimmery card.
The daisy border is part of a two stamp set for 90P!!!

I have used shimmery sukura on the wing tips
and the wee dots. I added gems to the small flowers.

I used sukura soufflé pens on the daisy border.

How sweet is that poem?

I have been having problems getting good lighting
and am looking into getting a daylight bulb
and photographic cube/tent thingy.

hope you come on over and join us at Crafty Pad!
