Hi everyone! I hope you all had a nice weekend! I now have two sick kids (it was just one)...one on the mend and the other just beginning! Looks like I'm in for another long week. Sheesh! Well.....I stole a bit of time in my craft area this weekend to make this card for today's There She Goes challenge #28~Fun With Chipboard!
I started with this A-Dorable new set from There She Goes called Penguin Love. I was inspired by THIS CARD by my pal, Jodi Collins. Thanks, girl!! The scene was stamped in Memento Tuxedo Black and colored in with Copics. I added a lot of Crystal Snow Glitter with a Sakura Quickie Glue Pen to the image to give it a little sparkle. The chipboard is from Maya Road and was colored with a Copic Marker. Two buttons were added to the center for a little more interest. The ribbon and cardstock are from Papertrey and the DP is the Eskimo Kisses from Basic Grey. Of course, I had to add some stitching!
Here are all the details on the challenge:
Chipboard comes in all shapes and sizes, plain or already altered and is such a fun embellishment to use! This week we challenge you to make a card/layout/project featuring chipboard. Chipboard can be found in every house! You can use your favorite die cuts to cut shapes out of cereal boxes, you can paint, paper, glitter them, the possibilities are endless!! Let your imaginations soar and have fun with this challenge :)
To be eligible for the giveaway, you are to create a card/layout featuring some form of chipboard and then come back to the TSG Blog to add your name and a link to your project in the Mr. Linky that is located at the bottom of this challenge post.
