K is for Kraft card

Good Morning everyone, don't the days and weeks pass fast at the moment. 

Its time for a new challenge over at alphabetchallenge 

The theme this fortnight is:

K - KRAFT 

So i dug out my kraft card and a paper pad and my new fringed chevron die.

5x5 kraft cardbase.  After picking which paper pad i wanted to use i cut 5 chevrons from 5 different sheets (ideal for those left over pieces!), i layered these up overlapping on a piece of kraft card, mounted onto black card and then the card base.

I then cut a strip of paper from another sheet from the pad, layered onto black and then covering the top chevron edge i added it with foam tape.  Stamped sentiment mounted onto black and on the belt band.  Light gold gems to embellish. 

Just close up trying to show how the chevrons are fringed.

Items Used:

My Minds eye collectable paper pad -  'remarkable'

MFT Fringe Chevron die

Kraft card - papermania

Black card - payper box

Clearly besotted sentiment stamp.

Gold gems.

I is for Ice Cream

Good Morning all

Time for a new challenge over at alphabet challenge, letter I is for

ICE CREAM

Another theme i don't have much in my stash for, found these papers that came free with a cardmaking magazine years ago - knew they would come in handy one day! 

5x5" Kraft basecard.  I layered one of the patterned papers onto mulberry cardstock and then the base card.  I die cut a white , larger mulberry, and larger kraft circle and layered up as the base to my ice cream cones.  This i mounted on the front with foam tape. 

 I then stamped the sentiment on a strip of white card, layered it onto mulberry and then kraft card.  I added a strip of patterned paper to the bottom die cut with a fringe die to add some interest.  Pink enamel drops to finish.

The ice cream cones were originally on ready made topper squares but i cut them out so i just had the cones.  I added touches of glitter glue, enamel drops and glossy accents.

MFT Die-namics Fringe Chevron die
