Crafty Calendar Challenge - DT card

The Crafty Calendar Challenge begins today, with the theme of 'Three of a Kind'.  This is my DT card.

The beautiful image is a digi stamp from this month's sponsor, Sheepski Design called 'Hello'.   I coloured the image with Promarkers and die cut with a Memory Box 'Stitched Scalloped Circle' die.  I embossed a piece of white card with a Marianne 'Ocean View' e/f, then added 'Peacock Feathers' Distress ink with a brayer over the raised part of the embossing.  I added three shell beads which have been in my stash for ages.  From memory I think I bought them in the Early Learning Centre.  The sentiment is die cut using a Sue Wilson 'Frames and Tags Stitched Flags' die, matted on a piece of the teal card and attached with foam pads.

The Crafty Calender Challenge finishes on June 28th, so there is plenty of time to join in the challenge and be in with a chance of winning a lovely prize from our generous sponsor:

  2. You did a fantastic job braying ink on the embossed panel. It looks wonderful. That is a cute image. I love how things I bought a long time ago because I liked them turn out to be the perfect thing to add to a card just like your shells are.
