Dare to Get Dirty

Hello friends!  If you are a Fan Club Member at Splitcoaststampers, no doubt you have been feverishly creating cards for all of the DTGD Challenges posted this week.  Although today is the last day for the challenges to be posted you have until Monday, August 8th at 11:59 PM Central time to upload your projects.  The card I'm sharing today was made for Brenda's challenge.

Creative Nugget:  Papers from the Blooming Garden Paper Collection by Our Daily Bread Designs was used to line the panels of this Z-Fold card.  The Trellis Strip border was cut in half and mounted to each side of the fold.  A sentiment from the Birdhouse stamp set was cut with Circles and Pierced Circles Dies and popped onto the card using mounting tape on only the left side of the card so it could open.  Pretty Posies Dies and Bitty Blossoms Dies were used to cut some floral embellishments, and the card is tied shut with seam binding.

The Birdhouse image was colored with Copic Markers and cut with the same circle dies for the inside of the card. The Trellis Strip border was continued across the center panel.  One of the Trois Jolies Papillons was stamped, colored, cut with the matching Trois Papillons Dies, and popped onto the right panel along with a pearl flourish to finish the card.

This card is being submitted for the following challenges:
Word Art Wednesday Challenge #242 - Anything Goes
Alphabet Challenge - L for Love
Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge
Through the Craft Room Door - Anything Goes

Thanks so much for stopping by for a visit!  Have a wonderful weekend!

Hugs,
