As I mentioned in my last post, I've never really explored the many possibilities that exist when playing with chipboard - and I still haven't - but I do intend to, bet you can't guess how? Well, at the moment it is so easy ...... I just took advantage of this month's offer of a whopping 25% discount on all the chipboard that SU offers, both current and retired ( while retired stock lasts ! ) - it's a fantastic saving that allows you to make loads of embellishments for your cards and scrapbook pages - I'll just mention that I'm really getting into the cute 6 x 6 scrapbook page size - I'll soon be ready to show you what I've been doing with this but I haven't quite finished yet!
So for now, I will show you my 'take' on the challenge that Sally set for her downline when she posted some of her chipboard elements to us to play with - it was so much easier than I thought to make my own embellishments and being able to match them perfectly to my papers was so great - if you notice I even managed to cover the teeny tiny chipboard dots with little flowers using the paper from the Sweet Always range of designer papers - ta-dahhhhh ..... my very own unique brads.

ReplyDeleteHi Bridgette...I think this card is simply gorgeousness. I never think to ink the edges but love it when I see it on other peoples cards. Thanks for your comments on my blog.
ReplyDeleteReally beautiful card Bridgette, I love the colours! Its amazing how versatile chipboard actually is :) Thanks so much for the lovely comments on my blog about my jewellery, I do wear my own stuff all the time as its a great way of getting sales and also booking parties!
