Spots / Stripes / Easter

Hello Blogland,

I'm here today with my DT make for the new challenge over at Crafty Calendar Challenge, this month the theme is 'Spots / Stripes / Easter'.  Our lovely sponsor this time is Digi Doodles and the Design Team were provided with some super cute images to use - this is my card with one of those images.

As said before, and probably enough to bore you, I don't 'do' religious celebrations so my make focuses on the 'spots / stripes' part of the challenge. Here's the card:

Supplies used:

Digital Image:

Digi Doodles - Daisy May and Sweet Pea

coloured with my Copics 

(I hand coloured the background - the image doesn't come with clouds)

Rubber stamp:

Taylored Expressions - Simple Strips: Backgrounds

Dies:

Taylored Expressions - Simple Strips: Asymmetrical

un-branded stitched rectangle die

Any thing else?

My Minds Eye free Spring paper pad

Normally I would do a 'This is what I did' bit here, but while floating about the many groups I belong to on Facebook I read a post saying from someone starting a blog who wondered if it was old-fashioned to do an explanation of how the card was created. Lots of people said they appreciated knowing what was used, but didn't need a step by step 'how to' guide. Hmmm, appears I maybe old fashioned then! So I thought I'd leave that bit off for now. I figure my pictures of my cards are very clear (I hope!) and probably people can figure out from them and the list of what I use how I make my cards.

Please do pop over to Crafty Calendar where you'll find my Teamies have made some stunning cards - as always! I look forward to seeing your entry as well!

On the craft room front, I'm almost there. Just got a few more drawers to move about, a lot of labelling to do and then tweaks as I work with it all - to see if I've got things in the right places, so should be back to normal cardmaking next week.

Signing off now,

See you soon,

Sarah

As You Like It Challenge: Favourite Interactive or Not (and why!) Ahhh now as much as I love looking at interactive cards, I've never actually tried one - oooooh confession time there! I'm not the most technical of people and I wonder if trying to make something move / wobble / pop would work for me. I gave up making my own card blanks as I couldn't get a straight edge on any of 'em! Also I take agggeeess to colour and place things 'just so', if I tried to add any other elements I'd be doing one card a year - so long story short, not!!
