.... I'm in really early with this week's CAS-ual Fridays - CFC72 challenge. This week the Design Team want us to make a card based on our own Blog Header!!! This sort of stumped me a bit as I don't have any images on my header - it's really graphic!! However, I've combined the challenge with this week's CASology - CAS12 challenge to feature a shoe!!! I know I don't have a shoe in my header, but as my Header is only words and colour - I think I can include just about anything as an image!! This is what I came up with:
Stamps: Waltzingmouse - Santa Was Here! (Secret set); Woodware - Christmas Borders & Vertical Words
Inks: Versamark; Memento - Tuxedo Black; Distress - Mowed Lawn
Spellbinders: Mega Rectangles Lg (S4-142) #4
Accessories: Cuttlebug EF - Snowflakes from Winter Wonderland (set of 6); Card from stash
So, from my Blog Header I've taken the following features - the colour, the rectangular layout and the embossed look of the lettering. And in my card I've layered green beneath an embossed snowflake background onto which I'd previous stamped a vertical sentiment. The shoe was stamped with Versamark and heat embossed. I then die cut it and added colour to bring out the shape of the shoe and the pretty pattern of the Christmas Tree inside the shoe.
That's all for today - I'd better do some house stuff!!! Boring, but important otherwise the dust devils land!! See you soon.
