Hello friends,
A new challenge starts today at Double D Challenges. Team Diane is hosting this challenge with the theme “Red/White/Blue AND/OR Stars & Stripes”. Just look at the lovely mood board – it will surely help you to get started. The team have created beautiful cards to inspire you – a visit to the Double D Challenge blog will be worthwhile.
I decided to play with hearts in different shapes and sizes as the focal point of my card. As the card is for a teenage girl I choose background papers that create the idea of a denim look. I layered the hearts on the blue striped background paper and added little red stars for a cheerful look. I finished off with a paper lace border, red roses, glitter and bows. The sentiment die is from Spellbinders. This was a really quick and easy card to make and I hope the (teenager!) recipient will love it.
I entered my card in the following challenges:
- Come and Get It Challenges (ends 05/07) – Make It Square
- Fussy and Fancy Friday Challenge #186 (ends 05/13) – Anything Goes
- Creatalicious Challenges #114 (ends 05/15) – Anything Goes with optional for the girls
- Eclectic Ellapu May Challenge (ends 05/31) – Anything Goes
- Mix It Up Challenge MIUCB#1 (ends 05/31) – Anything Goes + optional twist of Embossing
- Little Red Wagon Challenge #392 (ends 05/10) – Time To Celebrate
- Scrapy Land Challenges #65 (ends 05/14) – Anything Goes using any brand of low profile or steel ruled die Scrapy Land sells. (Dies used: Spellbinders Nestabilities “Classic Hearts” — Spellbinders Shapeabilities “Phrase Set One” (S4-563))
