A card to believe in...

Hiya peeps

Todays blog post is for my Design Team
project for the
Not Just Cards Challenge Blog

I decided to use a very recent card which is
about a magical, fantasy inspired animal
called the Unicorn!!

I know Unicorns are all the rage at the moment

for both little girls, big girls & adults alike,

well, mainly female anyway. They are so beautiful, graceful and majestically all at the same time.

I have been drawn to the "fan club" by making 
the following card as well as another one &

a mermaid (yes another fantasy creature) all
for the birthday girl (from Mum, Nan & Uncle).

For this Unicorn card I used a lovely cute digi from

Pink Gem Designs called "Birthday Unicorn" card
topper set. It fits an 8x8 inch square card but can
be altered in most photo editing software including "Paint".
I left the digi at that size, making the whole card roughly 10" (25.5cm) square. All card stock is from Papermill Direct 
(in the Lake District and my favourite card supplier).
All the decoupage layers were added using foam pads, ribbons, pearls (for the number) and then the row of flower pearls are all from my own stock. The verse was taken from my stash that I have ready printed off. I cant remember where I found it.

I very much hope that I inspire you to
join in with our blog challenge,
you have until Oct 10th 9pm (GMT)

I wish to enter this card into the following challenges:

World Wide Design #08

A DT call is on at........

Well, yes, a fabulous DT call is on now at........ wait for it......

Kenny K's Krafty Krew!!!

A wonderful opportunity for a most exciting chance to design for one of the best creators of digital images for a long time (and to receive every new image that is created by Kenny for the period of the 6 months term with a possibility of extension if mutually agreeable)!!!! ;) I couldn't be happier, I just hope that I get accepted as I have a deep admiration for Kenny K & Elena as they are so creative and very talented, as are the Kenny K Krafty Krew Design Teams (past & present)...
How do I apply??? It is so easy.....................

1. Create a post on your crafting platform announcing this DT call;
2. Present one or a few of your best KennyK creations and link back to here using Mr. Linky below; 
3. OR share your Facebook post (including your card and our facebook address) on our Facebook page (one OR the other please, not both). 

Hence this post here on my blog. I have placed some photos below to show you just some of my photos of cards that I have made using images from Kenny K.  I am lucky to have a few rubber stamps & a good range of digi's but I still have loads more on my wish list lol (well they are all so good!!!) ;0

The first card (4 photos) are of an easel DT card that I have made for a future challenge blog that doesnt go live until the beginning of December but you can see for yourselves how beautiful this image is. I used Mrs Claus on a piece of backing paper that came free with  one of my many craft magazines, adding 3 other images that I also coloured with my Graph It & Promarker pens (as I dont have enough Graph It pens in my collection yet) to create a small Christmas scene. I decided late on to use this image on an easel card, which I sometimes do when creating projects...If I dont like something I will change all or part of it as I am a 100% or more perfectionis!! 

Imagine this fabulous Mrs Claus in alternative Christmas colours (as in pastel purple & silver, or pinks/pastel blues with a matt gold).... mmmm will have to have a go with those colours, keep those eyes open in the next week. I will post the results here on my blog.

I love colouring in the images of Kenny K, wether they are rubber or digi's & I would endevour to be the best DT member that the Krafty Krew have ever known!!!

I am entering the first card (Mrs Claus) in the following challenges, as well as applying for one of the Design Team's vacancies:
