SUNNY DAY CRAFTING CHALLENGE #27 - ANYTHING GOES

Hello!!

Another week, another challenge at

SUNNY DAY CRAFTING CHALLENGES

The theme as always is

ANYTHING GOES

This is my inspiration for this challenge

Just a simple 'Thank you' card.

I stamped the front of a 5x7 base card with a floral stamp and leaves.

I used black for the 'outline and blue for the inner shading on the flower.

The leaves I left as they were.

I used a piece of lace-effect border across the front and put a 'Only For you' sentiment on the left side with 3D glue gel.

And thats it!

Loved the way this one turned out.

I cut out the bauble base card and two patterned paper layers on my Silhouette Cameo cutting machine. I cut the base card out twice and glued together to make a firmer base.
I added the two patterned layers.
I die a star and small snowflakes from glitter card and a 'Merry Christmas' sentiment from matt blue mirri card.
Made a triple bow using a bow maker.
I slotted the paper border through the chipboard frame and glued them in place in the centre of the card. sat the Robin on the bottom of the frame.
I glued the small snowflakes in various places, the star at the top right and the sentiment on the left.
The handmade flower I put at the edge of the frame centre and the bow in the middle.
I tied a piece of gold elastic trim through the bauble holder.
Lastly I cut out a card stand with Cameo and glued to back of card.
