Bon Voyage


Hey everyone! I'm back and I am so excited that I can finally announce that I am now part of the  Design Team for A Perfect Time To Craft! Today is my very first card I've made as part of the team to give inspiration for our March Challenge. If you would like to take part in the challenge then head over to - https://aperfecttimetocraft.blogspot.com/. We have some great prizes up for grabs.


So onto my card. My challenge was to create a card with a digital stamp chosen from SheepSki      Designs. Here's the link to her shop - https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/SheepSkiDesigns. Check it out she has some great digital stamps. It was a hard choice but in the end I decided on this amazing girl    on a scooter digital stamp. Here's the link - https://www.etsy.com/au/listing/  just in case you want one for yourself. Next I decided I wanted to create a penny slider card for this digital stamp as I loved the idea of the scooter driving along the streets of Paris.


First I printed, coloured and cut out my digital stamp. Next I choose a 8x8 inch deckle card blank and matted it with some red card leaving the deckle edge visible. The next decision to make was what backing paper to choose and I just feel in love with this lovely streets of Paris one. I measured and
cut it to size and then worked out where I wanted to add my gap for my pennies. Once decided and measured out I used my craft knife to carefully cut it out. The piece of backing paper that was cut out I stuck to my red card in the same place the gap would be to make it less noticeable

.
Next I placed a penny behind my backing paper and stuck one to the back of my digital stamp. Then I stuck both pennies together with a sticky pad to allow the pennies enough room to slide back and forth. I wanted my sentiment to blend in so I cut it out and matted it with some red card. Then stuck it above a shop door to make it look like a shop sign. To stick my backing paper to my card base I used thick sticky pads as it give the pennies enough room to slide freely. Lastly I add a red gem in each corner to finish it off. That's it! I hope you enjoyed it. Thanks for looking!
