Scrapology - August Card Challenge

Sue Wilson has kindly sponsored the August card challenge on Scapology and is challenging you to create a card using dies as the focal point or in unusual ways.

I chose to create an Anniversary card and used die cuts cut using Sue's 'Italian'  and 'Finihsing Touches' Collection.

I used some Dovecraft glitter card for the base and embelished the die cut with stickles. The sentiment was a peel off sticker and sticky pearls were placed in the corners. The teeny tiny heart was cut from the end of a pin!

Full details of the challenge and the prize can be found on the Scrapology blog.

Scrapology - August Card Challenge

Last week the August Card Challenge went live on Scrapology.  Design team member Sandra challenges everyone to create a card this month with a 'Milestones' theme - a special birthday, anniversary, etc. 

The design team usually know several months in advance what the monthly challenges are so for this months challenge I was able to make an Emerald Wedding Anniversary card for my parents anniversary in June,.

I decided to only just the colours white and emerald green on my card and found some gorgeous green glittery card from Dovecraft and a scrap of green ribbon in my ribbon box. 

From white card I die cut a beautifully intricate tree shape on the Craft Robo and made this sparkly with white ultra fine glitter. The tree was stuck onto a piece of white card which I had already printed my greeting onto. I them punched hearts from the green glitter card to decorate the tree and glued a ribbon bow on the tree trunk. The whole thing was then matted on more green glitter card then onto a white card blank.

I was pleased with the simplicity of the card and my Mum & Dad really liked it too.
