I always use a sketch when I am making a card - or even a tag - and I have made a little book, using money envelopes, to keep my favourite ones. Here it is...
And the inside...
The papers - and embellishments - are from My Mind's Eye ("Almanach" Collection), the cage was made with a die from Prickley Pear and the birds with dies from Leane Creatief.
My little book will enter the challenges :
- "Things With Wings" from Anything But a Card,
- "Die Cuts/Punches" with Make My Monday,
- "Anything But a Card" with Cupcake Craft Challenges,
- "Anything Goes" with Through the Craft Room Door,
- "Anything But Square" with Deep Ocean Challenge
and "Use One or More Dies" with Unstampa Belles Challenges.
Happy Crafting !
