U R 2 CUTE

Hi there.
Did you notice I've given my blog a little facelift? I hope you like it.

As it's Thursday, it's time for a new DECONSTRUCTED SKETCH

I'm running a little late tonight as Chrishanthi released a set of three unicorn digital stamps today, and of course I just had to colour one up for this week's sketch.

Unicorn Betsy can be found in the PPINKYDOLLS etsy store HERE


Here is Jen's awesome sketch. You might need to use your imagination a little, but I promise all of the elements are there in some shape or form.



I hope you have time to play along with us this week.

For more inspiration, check out the fabulous work of my team mates below.

I would like to enter my card in PENNY'S PAPER CRAFTY CHALLENGE. The theme this week is ANYTHING GOES

A HIDDEN EXTRA

It's INSPIRATION FRIDAY at La-La Land Crafts.
The theme this week is

A HIDDEN EXTRA

It had me thinking for days, but after a little internet surfing of different fold and flap card designs, I finally came up with an idea.

The first picture shows my card closed.


The next picture shows my card open, revealing the basket of poinsettias behind the window.


The third and final picture shows my card after the flap has been pulled. The area in front of the basket is to write your message. The area behind the basket has a stamped sentiment.


DIES USED


This one was lots of fun to make. Fiddly, but fun.
