.... one day - what's happening??!!

It's Thursday again - PaperPlay day. This week's challenge was set by Kate and it's all about "Dimension" - make your project as 3D as possible!

.

I had spotted this cool project by Kathy on the Bubbly Scrumptious website during the week and decided to make one as my DT entry. It certainly is 3D!!! Here it is:

This was such fun and so straightforward to make. And, even better, I've decided it'll make a good present for DS's teacher for Christmas!!!! Ta-dah - one pressie made - before August!!!!

The prize for PaperPlay this week sponsored by our newest sponsor, Crafty Angels - it's a Dovecraft 12" x 12" paper pack, lots of pink yumminess!!

Hope you get a chance to play along - and thanks for looking!

Mistakes and ....

.... happy accidents!

The first card is the one I was going to use for the Basic Grey Challenge only I used Crate Papers by mistake. I've also uploaded the close-up of the image because I like the shadows cast by the dimensional paper-pieced bits:



This second card is the first time I've used my Hero Arts Russian Dolls stamps. I was a bit nervous about them, as I had trouble initially with the Japanese Dolls, but I really loved using these - perhaps as they aren't so minimalist. Certainly suits the decorative BG Urban Prairie papers. Just noticed the picture is really blurry - I took it in too much of a hurry as I was rushing to the post office to post the card. Lesson learned!

Thanks for looking!
