CD Sunday - Beautiful Ballerina

This is my card for the current CD Sunday Challenge:

This is one of the decoupage images on the Paintbox Poppets cd-rom from Crafter's Companion, matted onto silver holographic paper.

Backing paper printed from the same CD.

Centura Pearl card with the corners cut away using a Marianne Anja die.

I cut up and re-arranged two 5 inch doiles to form a mat then used an ink duster to lightly brush the edges with Big & Juicy Hydrangea Ink.

5 gems were added to each side to complete the card.

I was delighted to be chosen in the top three for the last challenge, thank you.

My card is also for the following challenges:

Craft Your Days Away - Bingo - I chose Doilies, Die Cuts, Gems

Crafty Ann's Challenge - It's a Girl Thing

Bunny Zoe's Crafts - Girls, girls, girls

Toybox Treasures

This is my second entry into this weeks CD Sunday Challenge:

When I saw the topic I also wanted to make a card with the lovely Paintbox Poppets cd-rom from Crafters Companion.

My chosen image is from the decoupage section printed onto glossy photo paper.  The backing papers are both from the cd-rom, as are the flowers.  The lovely ribbon is from Joanna Sheen.  The oval she is sat on is a Spellbinders die cut into Core'dinations card.

I would also like to enter my card in the following challenges:

Fetch A Sketch - Sketch

St Lukes Charity Cards - A Bit of Bling (flower centres)

Paper Sundaes Challenge - Sundae Bar - I chose lace and die cuts.

Paintbox Poppets

Good Evening

I was lucky enough to win one of the Paintbox Poppets cd-roms from Crafters Companion.   This is my first card made using this fabulous cd.  The images on it are so beautiful as are the backing papers.

This image is from the framed cards section.  As you can see, I didn't make up the frame but did make up the decoupage.  It is printed onto a glossy photo paper.  I added peel offs to the frame.

I printed off one of the backing paper onto satin finish printer paper.  I die cut various shapes using Spellbinders Persian Motifs and Accents from pearlescent paper.  I went over all the shapes with Tattered Rose and Faded Jeans Distress inks to tie-in the colours.

I would like to enter my card in the following challenges:

Ooh La La Creations Challenge - On The Move

Papertake Weekly - One For The Girls

The Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge - Doilies Are Not Just For Cakes
