Let Have Some Cake

Good Morning,

My Crafty Friends, Visitors and Follower,

Today we are starting our first challenge of the year
 229 over at :-


The challenge theme is

Food & Drink

and its been chosen by Jane

The girls have been working hard to
create designs to inspire you, so please
take a moment to view their work and
if you can, leave them a comment.

I have chosen to use an image from the cd

Yesterdays Memories (Tea Time)

You can purchase it and others by clicking on 
the link   HERE.  There are also some great
freebies too,  so well worth checking it out.

The prize for the winner will be
2 digi downloads from the Ooh La La Creations Store

Details
1. Started with an 8 x 8 card and matted this one of the 
papers from the Cd.

2. Another of the papers was then added and this is one
of rolled corner papers ( I love these).

3. Next I added two paper doilies and on top of them I
adhered gold mirri card that I embossed and rounded
the corners.

4. The topper was printed off (the frame is also part
of the topper) and I then adhered flat onto the mirri
card.

5. I then took another piece of gold card, die cut and
from the internet I printed the cakes,sandwiches and
teapots.  These were then cut out and adhered to the
card using foam pads.

To complete I added cream roses, gold gems and die
cut the sentiment Cherish the Moment again from
gold mirri card.

So there you have it, my take on the Theme,
looking forward to seeing what you come up with.

Thanks for calling
Until Next Time

card from Hunky-dory and then rounded all the edges.

2. Next I have added a strip of hessian that has lace attached

3. I have had this jigsaw die for a few months and to be honest
when I first got it I used it to cut what you see now and its
 been sitting on my window ledge for ages ( knew it would
come it useful sometime lol).  Anyway I adhered the jigsaw
to the centre of the card but left a few pieces loose.

4. The image has been coloured with Copic and die cut
using Tonic circle dies. I then adhered flat to the jigsaw.

5. Using foam tape I the preceded to add the loose pieces
of the jigsaw randomly around the card.

Tim Holt.

Hope you will come along and join us.
