Bird-day


I created this card to enter into the Get Funky challenge blog - they even give away a free digi backing paper for you to use, which is really great, it's not my usual type of thing, but then hey, that's the challenge!

The base was created using my nesties, so this is a really dinky card, but I quite like that (gone from 8x8 card to 3.75 round!). The image was one of the Bugaboo stamps freebies from a while back and seemed to sit quite nicely with the backing paper, funky and bright. You can't see it from the picture but the cherry on the top has had glossy accents added. It's probably not one of my best cards, I keep looking at it and thinking there is something missing, but it's so bright and busy already I don't want to play with it and mess it up.

Anyway, it's Saturday, I've tidied the kitchen and so it's time for me to be off and craft - still need to make my three cards to enter to try and get on the Just Tracy's Challenge Blog design team - fingers crossed!

Rachael I think this card is just perfect the way it is. It's great that you have moved out of your comfort zone to join in with the Get Funky! Challenge and the image you have used with the freebie paper is fab. Thanks for joining in and I hope to see you next month.
