This week's card challenge
OK, enough of the sad stuff. Let's lighten up..... ;^)
Here is this week's layout challenge:
Even though the rules say you can turn it round and use it from any side up, I still had some trouble with this one! I just couldn't get those 3 circles in. So I compromised a wee bit!
I used:
- dragon stamp from ebay- it's a Funstamps one
- dragon is coloured with water colour pencils and then a little water
- skeleton leaves coloured with chalk
- brown "texture look" paper from a small booklet of assorted sheets by Artsy Collage
- sky background torn from a large sheet by Dovecraft, Kate Knight floral
- Zzzzs were cut from a piece of card that came in an enormous freebie pack with this month's Crafts Beautiful
- "Have a relaxing birthday" - I wrote this in Print Shop, changed the shape,colour, etc., then printed out and cut out
- Sakura pens have been used to do little raised dots and doodles around the Zzzzs
- sparkly bits stuck on from the same freebie pack mentioned above
- flower brad from a sheet of assorted ones from Tesco
As I said, I found the layout a challenge, - but I loved the opportunity to use the dragon stamp on the hump of a hill. LOL!!!! The layout made me think carefully how to use the dragon and I appreciated that.
Hope you like him!
