I placed it as shown, along with die cut balloon number and name. I added the die cut 'Happy Birthday' and 'Granddaughter' then finished off with 2 die cut flowers and foilage, not forgeting some bling too!

Hi there, 

Sorry for being a bit late posting, have still been having probs with my laptop and this new blogger...oh the joys!! Anyways I'm now here to share with you my DT creation for The Creative Crafters. Still 8 days left to join us for our current challenge that as always is monthly with an 'Anything Goes' theme.

I thoroughly enjoyed making this one...after seeing a similar idea but in a frame, over on Hunkydory Crafts. This is my take on it with a card. Taking a blank 6x6 card, I matt and layered patterned metallic and black card. On this I added some black web netting. The pumpkin I created from a template, then drew round the shape on to some black card and cut out. I added buttons, then die cut leaf and vine, adding buttons to the leaf too. The stalk I made from brown card. Once the pumpkin was dry I added some glitter glue in between the buttons then added as shown. I decorated with a glitter die cut spider and die cut 'Boo', not forgetting some added 'bling'!! Hope you like it!!

Materials Used
Hunkydory - Moonstone 'Alphabet' and 'Lovely Leaves' Dies, Black Adorable Scorable Card and Gorgeous Miri Gingham Card
Ranger - 'Copper', 'Golden Rod' & 'Cinnamon' Stickles Glitter Glue

LeAnn's World 101 - Challenge 30

Hi there

(Sorry this is late, have had a few gremlin issues with my blog)

A new challenge has started over at LeAnn's World 101. As always our challenges are monthly 'Anything Goes'. I have chosen to use this fabulous image called School Girl, for my DT project this month. Isn't she wonderful?! I had an idea what to create after doing my other 'school' project a couple of months ago...so here is my finished creation...hope you like it!!

I decided to create a little black/chalkboard card. For this I used a 6x4 kraft card base and die cut the the side using square die, to create the legs. I inked the card using various distress inks. When dry I die cut a square in the middle and added die cut white card that I printed black with white 'school' chalk effect doodles. The image itself, I printed, coloured then carefully cut out, placing as shown. I decorated using die cut flowers, leaves and pretty banner with 'A B C' peel-offs. I again used the 'duster' & 'chalk' toppers from my last card. The pile of educational books, I found online for free download, I thought they were a great addition for the overall look. Oh and a bit of 'bling' to finish...What do you think?

Materials Used 

LeAnn's World 101 - 'School Girl' Image

ProMarkers - Saffron, Caramel, Vanilla, Grey Green & Pear Green

Ranger - 'Antique Linen' Distress Ink & 'Walnut Stain' Distress Oxide

Hunkydory - 'Floral Fancy', Lovely Leaves' & 'Banner' Dies - 'Floribunda' Backing Paper

M&C Boutique - 'Faux Stitch Square' Dies
My Stash - Kraft Card, 'Books', 'Duster' & 'Chalk' Toppers, Alphabet Peel Offs and Gems
