This is my card for challenge 21 at 'Less is More' which is a sketch challenge. I used a strip of Doodlebug paper matted on to a strip of pink card on which I used my Fiskars Threading Water punch. I've had this punch for a while but haven't used it. When I first bought it I didn't really 'get' how it worked. Since then I've bought a couple of the Martha Stewart punches and realised the principle is the same. I saw the Fiskars one used on a card in a magazine last week and decided to get mine out to have another go!
The main stamped image is one of 'Claire's Sentiments' from Little Claire Designs which I stamped and coloured. The two little cupcakes either side are from a Do Crafts set and I punched them out with my circle punch - again neglected since I bought my Nestabilities but it was just the right size for this card.
I'd like to enter the card in the following challenges:
Moving Along With the Times - 'clean and simple'
Shopping Our Stash - 'tools of the trade' (my two punches)
Less is More - I followed the sketch
Cupcake Craft Challenges - 'cooking up a storm'
what a cute card, love the bp's! x
