Here is my favourite card:



I went back to 18th May 2014 for this one. Our challenge theme was 'One for the Boys' and I used  Polkadoodles' CD Pretty Tuff.

I've matted the backing paper onto red card to start. I then took a Crafter's Companion Embossilicous folder with Co-ordinations card and sanded the image back. This then also went onto the red card. The large note is a Marianne die and the smaller notes are a Tattered Lace die. There are some great images on this CD and this is just one of them. I cut around him leaving a tiny white border and mounted him on foam pads.

I then took some of the Clarity stamp word chain stamps to stamp direct onto my card using a black Versafine ink pad. I bet some of you are now thinking 'she must be mad stamping onto a finished card' but I did it that way around so that I could see exactly where I wanted the words. :-). 

I've picked this card as my favourite for the following reasons:

1.  This was one of my challenge selections.

2.  It uses a CD, dies, an embossing folder and stamping (I like to incorporate lots of things into my crafting - it helps to justify all the things I keep buying!).

3.  I particularly like the use of red on this card as it really 'pops'. 

4.  My stamping direct to card was a success! Yay me!

Which will your favourite be??????????
