CRAFTMAD MAY CARD SWAP SPOILER ALERT!
EYAK48 DO NOT READ!
Hi All!
I am sure you have all noticed my absence over the last couple of months - I have seriously lost my papercraft mojo and despite countless attempts to find it again - It was just not happening!
As usual, I had put my name down to do a Thankyou card swap over at Craftmad for the month of May (I can't help myself) - leaving it until only yesterday to make a start on my two cards that should have been received by this date by my swap partner!
I was having big trouble - that is until I saw the below sketch challenge over at the Feeling Sketchy blog!
and even though this challenge was meant to be a scrapbook page - they were allowing it to be made into a card, as long as you followed the sketch!
So, after pulling out numerous stashed supplies left right and center, I created the following....
Not much Kaszazz product on this one other than Supa Tape and the Dark Brown Ink pad! The gorgeous Teddy Bear image was from a book that I had almost donated to Vinnies, when I happened to look at it in a different light and decided to repurpose it!
So now I am off to make the other Thankyou card to send so I can pop them in the post tomorrow when I am in town.
Cheers....
Hi Kelly, so glad you could use the sketch. Did you crochet the flower yourself? Lovely thankyou card, thanks for joining us this week at Feeling Sketchy :)
ReplyDeleteHi Jessica! No can't take credit for the flower - it was actually a rather stained lace doily that I had decided to cut up and use rather than throw it all out. I am big into upcycling at the moment! Thanks for your lovely words!
DeleteHi Kelly! Lovely to see you at Feeling Sketchy! I think your card is adorable.... thanks for playing :)
ReplyDeleteThanks Jess!
DeleteWhat a sweet card, Kelly. I am so glad you rescued the image from a book, it is way too cute. And well done on reusing a piece of doily...love it.
ReplyDeleteThanks for joining in the fun at Feeling Sketchy this week :)

Love that you reused that pic, and such a cute one at that!!! Can total understand the not having the mojo but mine is to do with just having a another baby and getting no sleep. Hope it cames back soon :)
ReplyDeleteMissed you, glad you are rediscovering your mojo! Lovely image - great recycling. xx
