Just Inklined To Hop - Fancy Folds

Good Morning all you lovely blog readers!

This is my second post this morning!

(For My Ooh La La Creations post, please scroll down!)

It's time for the March Just Inklined  Hop

This month, it's my turn to host & I chose the theme of

Fancy Folds!

I have to say I wasn't the most popular person for choosing it LOL!

Now, without further ado, here's my card!

I've made a little spring card! The image I have used is 

Cherry Blossom

I used shades of Amethyst to colour it this time! 

It's a perfect image for a spring birthday or indeed anytime of the year.

 I can think of lot's of other occasions it could be used for too!

Now, if you're anxious to hop on, you next stop is 

Tammy

whom I'm certain will have something wonderful to share with you!

Before you go, don't forget to comment on all of the blogs

as we always have a spot prize or two along the way!

Here is the hop order incase you need it!

Dawn (that's me)

If you want to read a little more about this card then read on!

Here is the card with it's matching die cut tag!

You could either use the tag to write the greeting or as a gift tag!

I used  a mix of promarkers & flexmarkers to colour the image.

I cut the image out with an oval nestie, then inked the edges & the sentiment with 

a liquid chalk inkpad. The papers I have used are by DCWV

they have been around for some time & I had used up nearly all of mine, 

but I managed to procure some from a friend who was having a crafty clearout!

I threaded several strands of twine through the hole in the tag.

Here's a little side view to let you see the fold if you're not familiar with it.

The recipient of this card is the lady who taught me how to make these.

She also loves purple so I'm hoping she likes it! lol

Lord Money Man Loves A Freebie!

Good Morning All!

It's that time of the month again!

Would you like to win a GDT with the Dude & Dudette's for a month!?!?

There is a Freebie on the Dude Time Doodles Blog this week!

All you have to do is make something for a Dude using the freebie,

upload it to the blog, sit back & wait to see if you're this weeks winner!

Simples!

Here's my card!

The Freebie this week is 

Lord Money Man!

He reminds me a little of the Mad Hatter from Alice In Wondeland!

I made a little spring card.

The card stock I used for the base card is Linen Embossed & I printed

 the image on to the same card stock. I really like the effect it gives.

I used my trusty Promarkers to colour him up. The cut him out using nesties

The papers I have used are from DCWV I think!

This is another of those items that have been in my stash forever!

 I've vowed to use at least some of it up before I go on a spending spree!

There is a plain black layer & the pinstripe layer.

Here of a close up of the man himself!

If you've missed the Freebie this week & you'd like to purchase 

Lord Money Man you can find him here there are 

some fab sentiments to go with him too!!

Additional items on my card are a Crafty Pad Designs Sentiment ticket,

I added it at the side of his hat a little like Mad Hatters ticket!

Some buttons, some ruffled ribbon & stick pins from my stash.

I wish I had taken another view from the side to let you see how

 each section is decorated but hey ho!

I hope you can play in the Challenge this week & I look forward to seeing your creations 

so I can stop by & leave you some love!
