It doesn't often take me two days to make a card... but I was a bit stuck on this one! Almost everyone else did a 'flapper' card and I wanted to be different! The 1920s was the era of Art Deco, so I made an Art-deco inspired stained glass window card. The stained glass is made with gold peely stickers on vellum and I coloured the back with markers. Then I mounted it in a window and put a white insert behind it.(PS. Reading the challenge again it seems I could have picked ANY decade! Oh well... it's done now. Everyone needs a challenge now and then.)
Day 72 - It needs something
Today's challenge (okay, yesterday's) was to take a stamped or printed image and add something to it. I found this cute little boy stamp in my basket, and I added some stickers and a rubon baseball bat to transform him into a junior sportsman. The hat and shoes are a bit big, but I think they're cute! I had a sticker bat but it was way too big for him. The sentiment is a rubon too... I was going to put 'congratulations' but that rubon broke when I was trying to attach it. I hate rubons for that very reason!
