A Perfect Time to Craft Open Challenge Blog - April 2021


Today sees the start of another challenge over at the A Perfect Time to Craft Open Challenge Blog.

The topic is always "ANYTHING GOES" and you are allowed unlimited entries into the challenge. 

This monthly we were lucky to be sponsored by "The Hungry JPEG".  

The Design Team got the wonderful collection "The Febulously Spring Floral Bundle" to make our cards/creations with.

Once I'd got all of the bundle download I went through from start to finish.  I chose a few kits in the bundle but when I came across:

the kit called "Sunflowers" by Yuliya Art all of the other choices were no more, if you no what I mean, as sunflowers are in my top 3 favourite flowers along with poppies and roses.

For my bright and cheery card I have used a backing papers, have taken a frame into Craft Artist so I could add the sentiment "Happy Birthday" and make into an insert for inside the card and cropped some of the sunflowers/daisies and printed out four times and fussy cut.

I have used a piece of white vellum and put it through a Crafter's Companion large dot embossing folder and I have put a piece of gold mirri card to go under the topper into a Crafter's Companion distressed embossing folder for some texture.

I have finished the card off with some lace, Viva Decor dots in bronze and gold to the centres of the sunflowers and Nuvo peal drops to the centre of the daisies.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:
