Catching up.....

Well, I have been making cards in between the reorganising and tidying, I just haven't been uploading them. So there are quite a few to feast your eyes on....

Three DCM Dares....
Now, this week it's Rachel's first time to set the dare;"Well I thought we have had plenty of flowers and hearts and girly things so I would like some cards with some teen spirit please."Quite a first challenge ! Thanks Rachel !


I really enjoyed this challenge, I bought these quickutz dies from ebay with a voucher and just love how they turned out. My boy Dillon said it looked like a girl pirate (so cute!)

The large circle is dark pink but don't think the colour is as strong as IRL, I added doodle stitching and cracks to the die cuts. Attached with 3d foam. Quite simple three colours.




Next....

What you need to do is use one of Mel's favourite things on your card (embroidery cotton/thread, buttons, felt or fabric) and combine it with one of your favourite things.


I used Felt and my favourite thing would have to be die cutting so combined the two. The stem and leaf I drew and cut by hand. The felt was die cut and the next layer I used ovals to create flower, then cut scallop and finished with a brad and sticky gem.




Next....
Call for tea, the bags on me...
The dare involves creating a card incorporating a tea bag or coffee satchel - just perfect for days when somebody may need a quiet rest and break. I'm really looking forward to seeing what you all create for the dare.

Kept it quite simple, mostly die cuts (of Course). I made a pocket inside to hold the tea without using any kind of adhesive on the bag.


Well I'm bit tired now there are a few more to show so hopefully i'll upload over the weekend. Thanks for stopping by HuGs Kim x
