Bearly Mine Challenge - Tuesday 14 May 2013 - Lucky Dip

It's Tuesday again and time for another challenge over at the Bearly Mine Challenge Blog.  

The challenge this week is a "Lucky Dip" whereby you have to use 3 items from the above list on your card/creation.

  

As usual we have two wonderful sponsors this week who are The Paper Shelter and Emerald Fairies.  Emerald Fairies are offering 3 digital images of the winners' choice.  The Paper Shelter are offering a $20 gift certificate to be used in their store.

For my card I decided to make an A5 card for change and also one for those difficult age of teenagers.  I always used to use this size but then got hooked on 6x6 cards.  For my card I have used The Paper Shelter image "Gothic and Modern" and have coloured the image in with my trusty Promarkers.  After die-cutting around the image I have used three different See D's stamps to stamp around the edge.  I've used a dotty stamp and Tim Holtz's Tumbled Glass distress ink.  Then I've used a scroll and a wiggly line with Tim Holtz's Victorian Velvet distress ink.

  

The backing papers I have used are a pink gingham from the Bearly Mine Designs Spring Surprise digi set and the blue patterned paper is from the Bearly Mine Designs The Boys Zone.  I have finished the card off with some lace, My Craft Studio (MCS) Click-Print-Go flowers which I have bent inot shape with tweezers and added brad centres to, Pearly dots and a Craftwork Cards die-cut sentiment.

So in relation to the Lucky Dip title of this challenge I have gone for:
