Hmmmm, not keen!

It took a while to make this, and involved a lot of measuring, scoring & cutting, and now that it's done I'm not too keen on it.

glare off the flash! grrr, this is the best pic of the front I could get, sorry...


The image is a stamp I bought off ebay a couple of years ago, I stamped it twice, coloured both with promarkers, then cut out the cat and pot on one of them so that I could 3D them onto the other. I added pearls and a tiny gold star for the trees decorations.
The hanging greeting is from a Dovecraft clear stamp set.


here's another, moving around the card...




and a pic of the other greeting inside (stamped using a different Dovecraft clear stamp set), pic shows the folding too...


I might not be too keen on this card myself, but someone may like it, so i'll enter it into the challenges anyway ;)

We're allowed 3 entries each week with Charisma Cardz so this is my 2nd (the first being my stack of gifts christmas card)
I think Charisma will be inundated with entries this week as the theme is 'christmas crafting' so I'm guessing most will have 3 crimbo cards/projects they can enter!

I'd also like to enter it into the challenge at Polka Doodles, the challenge being to use a fancy or interesting fold on our cards.

ok, that's me done, off to bed now. Nite Nite! xx

  5. Oh this is brilliant, I love the folds, and yes I can see why it took so much work to get all those folds just right, it is tricky work and to be honest I would not even know where to start let alone be able to finish it as well as this one, so well done you!
    Thank you for joining in with us this week at Polkadoodles, I look forward to seeing you again next time,
    Em.x
