A Spoonful of Sugar challenge - and this time I'm joining in as part of the DT!!


Yep, A Spoonful of Sugar is the second DT I've joined this year already!!  So that's four in total now - four cards a week for my chosen charities can't be bad right?!  Just hope I don't have to make any cards for people I actually know, lol!!

So this week's challenge over at A Spoonful of Sugar is with the theme "thank you".  For my very first card for ASOS, I used a long forgotten stamp from The Greeting Farm, Cheeky Mate.

 
 





She is sooo cool!  I originally wanted to try the distressed vintage style but ended up with my usual style of clean lines!  At least I went for muted colours!  The hemp string came loose when I took the photo but I didn't notice until I posted the pics!  Oh well - I can't be perfect all the time!  Okay, okay, perfection isn't a word that is normally associated with me, lol!  ;)

The rest of the DT creations are really gorgeous - go here to take a look!


I am entering this card into the following challenges:


Paper/cardstock: Bazzill cardstock, My Minds Eye Andrea Victoria paper kit
Stamps: TGF Cheeky Mate stamp
Mediums: Copics, Sakura white gel pen
Accents: hemp string,Kaisercraft flat backed pearls, American Crafts rub on sentiment
Tools: MFT Die-namics rolled flower and leaves dies, Martha Stewart border punch, Cuttlebug herringbone embossing folder, Nestabilities label die (inside card)
