Now for something completely different !

Hello Everyone, Have you had a good weekend? I was well enough to play so made a card!!

In my Yuku craft group a couple of weeks ago we had a die-cut swap and my partner was Becky, Becky sent me an amazing parcel of die-cuts. Lots of Tim Holtz die-cuts, bird cages and keys and lots of lovely stuff.

Because the die-cuts were so different to any I have or have ever used, I decided that over the weekend I must make a card using them. I have never made anything like this before and it is so different to ‘my style’ of card-making, but I must admit I had fun making it, using all the different techniques and getting covered in ink, it is far from perfect and I have lots to learn, but Thank you Becky for broadening my mind and stretching my imagination. Its a shame the photo doesn't show, but it all sparkles, the cage, key and lock are a metallic gold & silver and the flowers have been sprayed with glimmer mists, the ribbon is wonky but just ignore that bit lol! It does look better IRL.

However, even though I had lots of fun, I think I will stick to cute!!!!

I Found a few challenges this card follows the rules for so I would like to enter this into these challenges:

CARD CRAFTERS CIRCLE Challenge #10 = Use Die-cuts or Punches

CRAFTS FOR ETERNITY Challenge Recipe # 59 = Lock & Key
