Cards For Men Challenge 1

For the first Challenge on the Cards for Men blog

its a Christmas theme

For my card I used some 6x6 striped paper I had in my stash

Cut it in half and stuck it at the top and bottom of plain white card stock

I used some shiny red tape I have as the edges needed something

The image in one of my new Stamps called DANGER MEN

Coloured using my Letraset Tria Markers

and then mounted on some red glitter card

Great Challenge

Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge 8

This is my first attempt at Mo's Digital Pencil Challenge Blog

The challenge this week is to create a Christmas scene with at least two images

from Mo's Digital Pencil

I used Jingle Bells and the Decorated Christmas Tree

I printed these onto plain card and coloured them using my

Letraset Tria Markers

I then cut out Jingle Bells so I could mount them using silicon glue in front of the tree

I added some gems and glitter glue to the tree for effect

Used a bit of some Kay & Co Christmas paper I had left over

and mounted it all on some green card

Loved the Challenge

CHRISTMAS TREES

I cannot remember the maker of the paper I have used I think it may be DCWV

The silver trees where cut using my Cuttlebug Die and Embossing

I matted them on to white/pink/silver card

Sentiment done in word and again matted onto white/pink and silver card

Quick and simple but quite effective I think
