A Tag and a Card !!!

Yes, at last I have made a card ! Here it is...


For the shape of the card, I started with a template from The Cutting Cafe (it was oval) but I "stretched" it as I wanted it more round... The papers are from First Edition, the flowers were made with dies from Die-Namics, the leaves with a die from Joy and the arrow with a die from Crealies. The sentiment "Love" was stamped with a stamp from Waltzing Mouse.The image is from Artchix Studio (it has been in my stash for ever and a day...)

My card will enter the challenges :
- "It's All about the Eyes" with Try it on Tuesday,
- "Flower Power" with Fab'n Funky,
- "Use an Arrow" with Simon Says Stamp,
the colour challenge with 613 Avenue Create. Here is their photo inspiration...

and the challenge with Creative Craft Challenges 2 as I have used their sketch to make my card. Here it is... (The flowers and image hide the three background pannels but they are there !!!)


And because I HAD to make a tag as well, here it is...


There again the papers are from First Edition (they too have been in my stash for a looooooong time...) the cakes were made with die cuts from Cottage Cutz, the sentiment is from Cuddly Buddly and the flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts.

My tag will enter the challenges :
- "Anything but Square" with Kaboodle Doodles,
- "Show Us your Favorites" with Craft Us Crazy (it has to be : tags, kraft and dies !),
- "Tag you're it !" with Top Tip Tuesday
and the challenge with Sketch and Stash as I have used their sketch to make my card. Here it is...


Happy Crafting !
