Craftmad August Sketch Challenge


Another week has begun and not a Christmas card in sight. :-)
Today I am sharing a card that I made using this months Card Sketch Challenge from over at Craftmad.  I totally enjoyed making this as I have used paper and digi stamp that I have not used before.

Started with my blank white pre-scored card then a layer of Bazzill card.  Then this wonderful Blue Edge patterned paper Past Spodia Batik Blue Check.  This paper so reminds me of the chequered flag at the end of the race.  I then used my little postage stamp dies to cut the red glitter paper.  This terrific image I won from Limited Runs ages ago and finally have a chance to use it.  I coloured it with my Copic pens and used blue metallic paper to paper piece the cupcake wrapper.  To finish I added tiny black 'Happy Birthday' stickers along the bottom.

I would love to enter this card into the following challenges:

Sparkles Forum - #18 One for the Boys ends 28th August
Craft Your Days Away - #26 Birthdays ends 20th August
Paper Creator's Crafts - #5 Red and Blue ends 26th August

    Kaunis, mustavalkoinen tausta ja ralliauto sopivat tähän hyvin. Mukavaa maanantaita :)
