wisted Sisters Challenge on SCS....what are the Twisted Sisters you ask - well, I don't know if there is an answer for that - LOL!! They are a group of friends who get together and comment on each others cards, as well as the cards of many others.....we travel on a thread called the Old Broken Bus and there is a designated driver...and many backseat ones! Each week a challenge is set within the group and we upload it up on Fridays...well, as close as we can - we are talking time differences here!Our challenge this week was to make a card using black and yellow, grey or silver and to make up our own sentiment for it...I think it has to be humorous.....now, I have also made this for the Creative Card Crew Challenge and we had to use black and just one other colour - so it was a major fete fitting this into both challenges...but I did it...and this is how!
I embossed black card with the Textured Textiles Embossing Folder and then ran yellow shimmer ink across it, a strip of yellow argyle embossed card was torn and placed across the middle of the card. The image was chalked and layered on a deeper yellow, paper pierced on the corners. I then added half pearls along the pleat in the dress - now here comes the tricky bit - the silver...I used clear Kindy Glitiz with a touch of silver shimmer to it to add shimmer along the folds and riffles, this is not a solid glitter, so technically not another colour - so that keeps me in the Creative Cards Crew Challenge
A flourish (from Flourishes) was embossed, then cut out and topped with yellow layered flowers and black punched branches added as a finishing touch - and added onto a strip of pale yellow sheer ribbon!! The sentiment has been added on the inside - it says ' Another birthday - 'bling' it on!.
So that's it from me - I have finished in good time - the kids are home from Youth Group - the time just flies!! Thank you for visiting - don't forget to leave a comment so I know you have been - it makes my day!
