Managed to watch most of this week's live Craft Roulette episode. Interesting parameters
This was my 12th submission. Mary's guest this week was Nina from Waffle Flower so I used the same Postage Collage Die Nina used,.. just a little bit differently
Parameters
Project - For a Co-worker. This is for a co-worker's upcoming birthday
Colour- Kites in the sky. Red kites
Element - April, Poppies for ANZAC Day 25th April - It commemorates the landing of Australian and New Zealand troops at Gallipoli, Turkey, during World War I. On this day, people wear poppies as a symbol of respect and remembrance for the fallen soldiers.
Random - Sparkles. Glitter on my ephemera and foiled sentiments
Yesterday I popped out to Spotlight as my heat tool was shorting so needed replacing. So a new tool, a lovely paper pack and some wooden embellishments found their way into my basket. And then a quick call into Crackerjack (an all sorts of things shop) to pick up a Little Birdie paper pack and ephemera pack - Poppies and Roses.
This is actually the second card I made, but I didn't like the first one. I took a sheet of the poppies paper and die cut with the Waffle Flower die. I added the ephemera poppies (already glittered) and added some glitter to the wings of the butterfly. This week I had received my Krafter's card order - which included the latest Waffle Flower Postage Collage stencil - Wild Flowers and Spellbinder's Curved Everday Sentiments hot foil and die set. I used some silver foil. It's a great set with a lot of sentiments together so a few in my stash for whenever I need one.
As it was the first time I used the Spellbinder foil and die set, I'm adding this to Darnell's NBUS challenge
Here's the one that didn't make the grade
