crafty pad # 21 All in the Shape!

This week at Crafty Pad

It's all in the 'Shape'..
and the shape we would like you to make your card
in is an Octagon. :)
You may use any stamp,
any embellishments/ribbons/brads etc. :)

If you use a Crafty Pad stamp your
name will be entered twice for the prize.:) :)

If you DO NOT use a Crafty Pad stamp
then your name will be entered once for the prize. :)

The prize this week is any single
crafty pad stamp of your choice. :) :)

Here is a simple octagon shape should you need it. :)

So here is my Faith in an Octagon.
I used some chalk inks then
burnished the background.
Stamped my fave flower from SeeD
all over with a darker chalk ink.
I used my crop o dile to make holes for ribbon.
Faith on the Cushion is coloured
using distressed inks.

Debbie had asked us to do this shaped card.
and I thought I like that shape...
lets make a smaller one
and add on my Fave Butterfly stamps...
OH you know they are my fave!!!

I gave this to Amanda on Saturday
on strict instructions not to
blog it till after Sunday!!!!

Again I used chalk inks and burnished it.
Used Crop o dile to make three holes.
I used curling ribbon as I wanted the curls
but wanted them to me quiet stiff too.

The wee green tag is sizzex die,
stamped with See D friendship poem.
It lifts out from behind the butterfly.
I used three different sizes of the
Butterfly stamps on the pages.

The last inside page is stamped with the
Butterfly verse from the stamp set.

I added some flowers punched out,
layered adding gems to the centres.
Finished it off with some peel off letters.
