Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper August 2020 challenge


This is my design card for my Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper August 2020 challenge. .If you make anything that includes some patterned paper you can link your entries and you might be the randomly chosen winner of the lovely prize that I'm giving away. Please click on the challenge link to find out more and join in the fun.

This is a commissioned 8 x 8 card for a Granddaughter's 21st birthday. I was asked to include a white mini car and some make up ... and some flowers. All papers are Dovecraft from their Kiss and Make up paper pad.

The sentiment panel was done on computer and printed out on to Hunkydory shades of pink card, quickly pouring detail gold embossing powder on and heating. This was then cut out and embossed with a todo die, cutting another for underneath, raising the sentiment panel with foam pads. The Birthday sentiment panel is gold foiled, as are the numerals, although the gold doesn't show up very well here. Flowers were all from Hobbycraft (some time ago because I haven't been there now for months because of shielding.

Red, white and blue snowman


Another red, white and blue snowman, using one of those toppers I found in my Christmas stuff, with  Kanban strips either side, on a tent opening card blank with the scalloped edge, with a piece of red card inside so it shows when the card is closed.

Red, white and blue Christmas


Red, white and blue isn't a traditional Christmas combo, but I think it works. I've been sorting my Christmas stuff, some of it quite old, and came across a little bag of red, white and blue toppers (haven't a clue where they came from ... it's too long ago to remember). I had some offcuts of Christmas papers and some red card that needed using, so this is the first of a few cards made using those toppers. The background of the paper with the houses looks more lilac  on here, but it is definitely blue irl.
