WELCOME
to my little scraphut and welcome to our monthly
our challenge this week is the wheelbarrow from the Walk in my Garden cartridge.
You will find this image on page #107 and it is image #26 on the overlay.
Hello
5"x5"
square card

here is my cute wheelbarrow. i never used this cut and/or feature before. the feature is the "card" one but all you get is the front of the card. at least, that is what i got. i made a base for it.
i hid the flowers centers with the gypsy hide contour because being so small i was just going to rip the thin paper i used. i added the tiny rhinestones instead. i can still tell they are flowers, :).
i messed up at the end while stamping hello. i decided to use embossing powder to hide it but, i couldn't set the powder right. you see? i already had the transparency attached on the window. it was warping on me...:(
as you can see i was not having a good day, lol
btw, the hello stamp is from my pink stamper and you can purchase the whole set HERE.
it is called spectacular sayings.

i got myself a pair of martha stewart fringe scissors ;Dand i used them today for first time. i made the grass where the little punched birdie stands still. loved using this scissors.
this tree is from hoot n' holler, image #11 on the overlay. i cut this tree at three inches but it comes out a bit taller because of the branches. the pretty butterflies are from another paper punch. i like to have paper punches with small images because they are easier than trying to cut them w/the cricut sometimes and, i can use tiny scraps of paper too. :D
if you take a closer look to the tree trunk you will see i stamped for a more realistic look.
and you can see i curled the leaves too.
this is my base for the front card. it is another 5"x5"piece of white cardstock which i scored at 1/2 inch and glued it to the front.
this is how it looks when opened. the back is the one that bends, not the front.
here is the completed card.
i want to mention that the transparency used on the window is actually a clear plastic from the dollar stamps package ;p.
hope you like my card...this one is a first for me as i mentioned before.
i have a small giveaway and i will use random.org to choose for me.
you will have three days to claim your prize.
now, it is time to keep hoping and i am listing the entire hop list in case you are a bit lost. you can start wherever you want but you might want to stop at all the blogs. :)

Well you can't tell you were having a bad day my friend, lol! Love the card and you know I always love the colors you use! I always have problems with my papers tearing when I use thinner papers even with less pressure and slower cutting, I think my E is just used to the thicker cardstock, lol, she's very picky, just like her Mama, lol!

How cool is this card! I really like the bling centers for your flowers, and the contrast of the red & yellow!!
ReplyDeleteLLove the paper you used for the wheelbarrow and trees against the bright background papers. Great tutorial. TFS
ReplyDeleteGreat card, love the character of the card and the details you added. I hadn't tried the "card" feature on this cart before, but I will now that I see what it produces. Bad days come with the territory of crafting, but no one would know your were having one by looking at your card. TFS
