Crafty Little Fairies (DT) One For The Boys

Morning all - time for a new challenge with

Crafty Little Fairies

And this week our theme is

One For The Boys

You can make anything you like, so long as it follows the theme and features either a stamped or digi image.

I have done a mini tutorial this week for my card:

Ingredients:

6x6 pre-creased white card base

Wild Rose Studio Milton & Co – Get Well Toby stamp

Memento – Tuxedo Black

Bristol Board

Distress Inks (ReInkers)

First Edition – New Leaf 8x8 paper pad

Crop-A-Dile Warm Metal Eyelets

Baker’s Twine

And all of these products (or similar) are available from this week's sponsor 

HANDY HIPPO

 And here are the details in easy to follow steps (since when have my cards ever been difficult!)

 ·         Stamp image with Memento ink and trim panel to 3.5 x 4 (1)

·         Colour with chosen medium – I used Distress Inks (ReInkers) as watercolours

·         Mat onto piece of New Leaf and trim to a 1/16 border (2)

·         Stamp sentiment onto image panel and when dry adhere image panel to matting layer

·         Cut 5½ x 5½ New Leaf central layer (3)

·         Cut 5¾ x 5¾  New Leaf base layer (4)

·         Mat together

·         Cut 5½ x 1½ New Leaf contrast band and adhere to centre of main panel (5)

·         Adhere image panel to base layers centrally

·         Adhere assembled topper to white card stock (6)

·         With Crop-A-Dile, punch holes (7)

So, it's over to you now, can't wait to see what you make for this week's theme.

Hugs to all, Squirrel xx

PS.  Meant to mention, I have a bottle of Zest-It Pencil Blender on order, I bought Baby Oil last night, so at the weekend if the delivery has arrived I shall do a contrast and compare with these versus Sansodor, if anyone who uses pencils is interested.
