All in a row!

It's time for Team A to host the challenge at The Crafty Pad Challenge Blog this week and Helen has chosen the theme 'Show some Metal' - she was inspired by the London 2012 Olympics but I think I just focused on the 'Metal' with my card.


I used The Crafty Pad Designs image - Snowmen and coloured it with my usual combination of ProMarkers and FlexMarkers.  The Christmas Tree and Present embellishments are my metal - they are metal brads.  Full details of everything I have used are listed below.

We have two great Sponsors this week:


Prize is 3 digi images from their shop

and



Prize 3 single digi images from the shop 

I have decorated the inside of my card to complement the front:


As I am entering my card into a challenge that asks for the inside to be decorated this is a picture that shows the whole of the inside:


Card Recipe:

Papers:  Docrafts - Papermainia Mistletoe Kisses
Card Stock:  Joanna Sheen (discontinued)
Tools:  Martha Stewart - edge punch, Woodware - Corner Punch (inside card)
Embellishments:  Ice Stickles, Sakura - black gloss pen and Gelly Roll silver pen,
metal brads from stash
Sentiment:   Docrafts - Papermainia Mistletoe Kisses

I would like to enter this card into the following challenges:

My Heart Pieces Challenge - Use Designer Paper
Crafts and Me Challenge 95 - Green with Envy
I Love ProMarkers Challenge 128 - Spots and Stripes (there are both on my design papers)
Anything Goes Challenge 72 - Let's not be square!
ABC Christmas Challenge - O for open it up
Shopping our Stash Challenge 62 - WHAT was I thinking? - I bought a pile of Christmas Brads from C & C, most of which I will never use!
Clear It Out Challenge - Christmas in July - Use Red and Green Stash (card stock and brads)
The Play Date Cafe Challenge 143 - Colour Inspiration


Make sure you pop over the The Craft Pad Challenge blog, check out the DT projects and join us for our 'Show some Metal' Challenge.

Thank you for calling today, enjoy what is left of the weekend.
