Use Your Dies

Welcome to the new challenge over at Cardz for Guyz. This time we want you to use your dies. It gave me the perfect reason to use a new die that I bought at the recent Make It Show.

I used an old SU football stamp which I  stamped in black and clear embossed, in the centre of a white panel. I masked off the circle and sponged blue ink through a stencil. I added the die around the football and mounted onto a card blank made from the same blue card. Of course it had to be blue and white as both grandsons and two sons support Chelsea!

Make sure to pop over and see what the rest of the DT have made.

I am also linking this into the Happy Little Stampers Anything Goes with Dies challenge.

Cardz 4 Guyz - Numbers

The new challenge at Cardz 4 Guyz this week is "Numbers" chosen by Jan. This fitted in perfectly with the need for a card for my grandson's birthday later this month.

I used a new football die bought at the Make It show last week, but was a bit disappointed to find that it only cut the outline and the hexagons were embossed. I had intended cutting them out in white and layering onto black, instead once I had embossed them I sponged black ink through the die.

Football birthday.

It's my youngest son's birthday on Friday and he is an enthusiastic football supporter so the choice of a football card was not difficult to make.
I cut the hexagons with the SU hexagon punch and embossed the white ones with a Swiss dots EF. I mounted them onto some "Chelsea" blue card, which I made by colouring white with a blue Copic  to get the right shade. Then I die cut the round shape which was quite difficult as it was quite thick. And of course it flattened the embossing! I edged the sentiment panel with a ruler and the same blue Copic. Lots of snippets used so I'm heading off to the Playground again.
