I have big news! I'm now part of the DT over at Crafty Catz. We have weekly challenges which go live every Friday morning and they are nearly always "Anything Goes" with an optional theme if you choose to use it. Our optional this week is "For a Child."
This is my first post for Crafty Catz and I was lucky enough to get to use an image from our sponsor, Conie Fong. Most of you will know that I'm also on Conie's DT so this is a really delightful card to post and I'll be posting it on the Conie Fong April challenge as well.
This fun image from Conie Fong is called "Just Like Daddy." I colored it with ProMarkers (including the smudge on his t-shirt - typical boy thing, right?), and I cut the image with a Gina Marie die. To cut it as a long, narrow rectangle, I had to cut once, then move the die and cut it a second time. The die I used is actually about half again as wide. That's just a tip for how to make your framing dies more versatile. :-D
I used a blue dp from a Recollections stack and the solid blue CS background has been embossed with my 'Linen' EF. I added a wrap of baker's twine as the finishing touch on this CAS and masculine card.
