Let's Hear It For The Boys

It's time for a new challenge over on my favourite challenge blog CD Sunday and this time Pamela has chosen a theme of 'Let's Hear It For The Boys'.  Here is my card:

The front view

and the back view.

I printed a backing paper from Crafters Companions Men cd-rom onto cardstock to make the base card.  The sentiment was die cut using a Joanna Sheen die.  I cut a shirt shape from red card and decoupaged the club badge for on the front of the card.  The name and number on the back of the card were die cut using Memory Box dies.

CD Sunday - Past Times

There is a new challenge over at the CD Sunday Challenge Blog and this time Jane has chosen the theme of 'Past Times'.

I immediately turned to the fabulous 'Nostalgia' cd-rom from Joanna Sheen.  This is a much loved and well used cd of mine.

I printed off the image a few times onto glossy photo paper, so I could decoupage the image.  The sentiment stamp is from Lili of the Valley and the '70' was stamped onto shrink plastic using a numbers stamp set from Dimension Forth.  The 'DAD' was stamped using alphabet stamps from Dimension Forth.  I embossed the black card and dad lettering using an embossing folder that made me think of the pattern you get on some tyres, to tie in with the theme of the card.

CD Sunday - Anything Goes

Here is my entry into the new challenge over at CD Sunday which has a theme of 'Anything Goes'

I used lots of elements from the Kimono collection by Crafters Companion to make my card and I'm really please with the finished result.  I printed the decoupage elements onto glossy photo paper.  The backing paper was printed onto super smooth paper.  I die cut some elements from the range and then added embossing powder.  I used an embossing folder from the range onto the blue card stock.  The sentiment stamp is from Lili of the Valley matted onto a Spellbinders die.

Thanks for visiting my blog.  I'd love to know what you think of my card.
