Another design team project for our challenge over at DS4J's challenge blog. The theme for Challenge No.95 is SHAPED CARDS. Margaret is hosting this challenge. Thanks Margaret for choosing this awesome theme for us.
A new shaped card design I have been trying out recently, but am not sure what this fold is called. If anyone of you know, it would be great if could leave me a comment with the name for it. I have used the following images from DigiStamps4Joy:
The images have been coloured with Copics and dry chalks. The folded embellishments have been created with square punches. The design paper is from FabScraps and Paperloft. The brads and photo corners are from my stash. The sentiment is from Create with TLC .
Looking forward to seeing your creations. So hop on over to DS4J's challenge blog and link your Creations to Challenge #95.

Hallo liebe Desire,

Stunning Card Desire. You are so clever with your shaped cards. I believe the shape is called "Double Dutch" but I might be wrong. Love your wild animals and the sentiment is wonderful. I feel quite homesick! Michelle x

ReplyDeleteLovely. I coloring and design are just perfect. Thanks for playing with DCD
ReplyDeleteHi, Desire!! So lekker om jou te ontmoet en dankie vir jou kuiertjie op my blog. Hoop ons gaan in die toekoms nog baie by mekaar kuier en inloer!!
ReplyDeleteJou kaartjie is pragtig!!! Laat my verlang na ons gunsteling vankansieplek - die Kruger wildtuin natuurlik!!! Ek kan sien jy het baie tyd daarin gesit en ek's mal oor die lekker Afrika-gevoel!!! Pragtig gedoen!!!
Groete uit George!!
NS. Ja, dit is die George-piek wat jy op my foto's sien - ons is bevoorreg om 'n pragtige uitsig op die berge te he - ek waardeer dit elke keer weer van vooraf wanneer ek daarna kyk!!
Hoop jy's gemaklik met die Afr. Dis vir my net soveel makliker om in Afr kommentaar te lewer, maar as jy Eng verkies is dit geen probleem nie. Goed gaan!!!
What a cool shaped card! Fabulous designs. TFS
ReplyDeleteLOVE this!
