Just Checking | Daring Cardmakers Challenge

Good morning!

This week over on the Daring Cardmakers blog the challenge is all about using check patterns.

I managed to find some Lawn Fawn paper in my stash old Simon Says Stamp kits that would do the job:

Card inspiration from Handmade by Natty featuring The Stamp Market So Mini Hellos

Paper: Lawn Fawn
Stamps: Flora & Fauna – Everyday Word Party, The Stamp Market – So Mini Hellos
Dies: The Stamp Market – So Mini Hellos, Mama Elephant – Oval Deco Frame, PTI – Tag Sale #2
Other: Copic markers

I framed the paper background with the large Deco Frame from Mama Elephant layered up with two die cuts. In hindsight, I probably should have cut them from a different colour of cardstock, but I was committed by this point. 😉

The Mini and balloon elements were all created with the So Mini Hellos set from The Stamp Market, coloured in with Copics and some white details added with a pen.

They’re mounted on a cream Tag Sale tag from PTI and finally a sentiment from the Everyday Word Party set from Flora and Flora finishes off the card.

Make sure you “check” out the wonderful projects from the rest of the design team here, and play along if you can. 🙂

Happy crafting!

Great card Nat, love the red mini as contrast to the blues!

Thanks for your lovely comment, Donna, it’s a great set and I hope you enjoy making many cups of cocoa…

Great card! I recently purchased this die set so your card caught my eye. Wish I could create with those…

I definitely have! Although I’ve now run out of projects to share until I’m back at my craft desk again.…

Thank you so much Joanne!, it wouldn’t be Christmas without a bit of pink. 🙂

About my project supply lists

I only use and share products that I genuinely love. The product supply lists that accompany my projects are simply intended to provide a visual overview of what I’ve used in case you have the same items at home or would like to add them to your own shopping list.
In my supply lists, I link to several stores in the UK and US and am an affiliate member of Scrapbook.com, The Greetery, Concord & 9th, Altenew, Spellbinders US and UK, and Amazon UK. This means that when you click on an affiliate link and go on to make a purchase, I will receive a small percentage at no cost to you. Money raised through affiliate links will go straight towards my crafting fund, which includes hosting this blog.
Please note that any products marked “(r)” are retired and may no longer be available for sale online.
Following the transition of my old blog, Kool Kitty Musings, to Handmade by Natty, the supply lists in those posts may have missing images and out of date links. There is no easy fix for this, I’m afraid – but you can still see which stores stocked the items in question at the time of posting.
I also list the stores I regularly use and have affiliate links for here.
