Birdie
Brown has
a monthly challenge and is very generous with her freebies. This month we get
to work with Rocking
Doggie and the sentiment You
Rock. They made the perfect partnership for an image from Di’s Digi Downloads that I bought to
make a card for my Brother In Law. He has a drum kit and how often do you get a
cute image with a drum kit?
I coloured the images and sentiment
with Promarkers and Flexmarkers and added an extra decoupage layer with the
little doggie and drum on the front image. The card from is covered with red
paper form a magazine freebie. I added a panel of card from the Family Ties pad
and wrapped some Airmal twine around it from Dovecraft. This panel is stuck
down with thin 3d foam pads to allow for the thickness of the string
underneath.
The image is matted onto some scrap
card and then stuck down with more 3d foam. The sentiment panel is probably one
of the very oldest embellishments I have from HOTP and it is embossed with gold
foil on it. I know they were blooming expensive at the time, hence I’ve never
used them.
The inside of the card has more of the
same red paper and then the Rocking Doggie has been fussy cut and is rocking
down a storm. The sentiment has been cut using a new Nestabilities D-lite die which
is more ornate for small sentiments.
