Hello!
June brings another Anything Goes challenge at Crafts Galore Encore.
The sponsor this month is the fabulous Polkadoodles who are offering a £6.75 Store Voucher which is equivalent to 3 digi stamps for the winner.
Nikki from Polkadoodles kindly gave the DT some digital stamps to work with and here is the card I made:
I used the adorable Earlie Hedgehog Dandelion digi stamp and coloured him with Copic markers. He is fussy cut and popped on foam pads into the die cut frame.
The background was made by scoring white card and swiping Distress Inks in Antique Linen, Vintage Photo and Weathered Wood. It gives a lovely aged, wooden effect. I added some random strips of white card horizontally and coloured those with Oxides as well. The background is a Tracy technique (check out Tracey's Facebook group here: Tracy Evans).
To finish I added some die cut kraft flowers, coloured with a little Fired Brick, and added a pearl to the centre of each. The sentiment is a TH chipboard sentiment.
Many thanks to Nikki at Polkadoodles for generously sponsoring and supporting this challenge. We hope you'll pop over to the shop to see the many lovely products on sale.
Please pop over to Crafts Galore Encore to see the DTs wonderful designs.
We'd love to see your creations.
Remember the challenge is always 'Anything Goes' and so you can create any type of project - it doesn't have to be a card and you can enter up to 3 times.
Thanks for stopping by today!
