I made to the Top 20 in the Paper Crafts & Scrapbooking Gallery Idol contest with my washi tape card here! I still can't believe it...someone pinch me! I am among some pretty fabulous ladies and some pretty tough competition.. but am honored to have made it to the first round.
Round 2's theme is die-cutting. I was so excited on Friday of the news that I had attempted to make a card that night... but failed miserably. LOL... after finally getting some zzz's I was able to come up with my entry. After lots of playing and plenty of scraps of paper late- I am pretty pleased with what I was able to come up with!
I first cut a circle from kraft using a circle nestabilities. Then, diecut the largest flower from My Favorite Things Plentiful Petals, and then again using the middle sized flower- but offset the petals in between the larger petals. I inlayed the largest flower diecut that I had colored using copics, topped with the smallest flower diecut (also colored with copics) that I had also wrapped the center with baker's twine and added some white & glitter dots! I added the hello die from Simon Says Stamp that is stacked 5 layers for some extra dimension and some clear embossing powder. The "friend" stamp is from Winnie & Walter's The Big, the Bold & the Happy set. Finished it off with some faux stitching and enamel dots and I called this card DONE! WHEW!
Here's a close up of the diecutting...
Thank you so much for stopping by and I would TRULY appreciate your votes to make it to the next round!
