Top Prize at Bug a Boo Catch the Bug!
Placed in the Top 5 at Eureka Stamps
Won at Art Impressions Stamps!
Placed in the Top 3 at Perfect Sentiments
THANKS TO YOU ALL!
I hope you are wearing green so you don't get pinched by a naughty little Leprechaun!
It's time for another challenge over at Pile It On and we want to see you using Circles AND/OR Squares!
We are sponsored by one of our favorites, Bugaboo Stamps who generously provided images for the team!
I used a square card base, rounded square die cuts and even have squares on my patterned papers! (I think I covered all square bases :))
Now you know the challenge is Pile It On and today I decided to challenge myself and see just how many challenges I could make this card fit into. With it being this time of year there are plenty of Spring, Easter and Green challenges and I think I did a pretty good job of finding a fair few to play in, don't you?
In the spirit of honesty I checked all the challenges to see if my card fit and matched it up against their design team samples to make sure I wasn't entering an incorrect card. So if the challenge said "Spring" and the team had Easter samples then I took it to mean Easter was allowed. The "Green" challenges didn't state "all green" so I think I'm OK there. And on a final note I'm not playing for the prizes, just for the fun of seeing how many I could enter :)
Also I checked each and every challenge for their rules and I am very pleased to say that all of these have NO LIMIT RESTRICTIONS to the number of COMBINED CHALLENGES! I have added a note if they have entry limits so you can play along with them too :)

Now as soon as I saw this image I just knew I had to cut it apart and decoupage it. Gosh it took a while with all those little parts but I sure had a fun time doing it.
And I found the perfect accompaniments in my collection of crafting stash, a bonus to having a "store" in my studio as my friends call it ;)
I hope you enjoyed this one as much as I did making it and be sure to go over to Pile It On and play along with us!

I've been looking forward to seeing all your fussy cutting with this image! Wow, it's spectacular. Your coloring is wonderful too, and that break from the pattern with the polka-dot paper for the leaf die cut is inspired! I so enjoy working with you at PIO. Best, CG
ReplyDeleteI really like the colors you've used for this card, and I love how you've decoupaged the image for 3D effect. And such a sweet sentiment too. Well done!
ReplyDeleteEine wundervolle Karte ist das. Ganz bezaubernd.
