Pringle, Soft Center - Sugar Bowl Challenge 1

Saturday 10 January 2009 - - 7 Comments

Finally found some "me" Time to be able to get a card done.
I have lost my mojo at the moment i seem to be out of practice making cards etc .
which is really frustrating, I don't know why but i don't feel as excited about crafting lately but hopefully that will improve with the more i start getting back into my crafting.
First thing first is to finish the new blog make over I'm doing on here, and then move my blog over to a different address.

Here is my card i done for the Sugar Bowl.

Challenge 1 - Sketch by Tiets
Below is my Card i have done following the Sketch above.



I really enjoyed making this card once i got over the frustration of not remembering techniques and feeling like i was starting from sketch as a newbie crafter lol.


I used a mixture of matting and layering, along with Embossing and Distressing with Inks.
