HAPPY BIRTHDAY CORTLYNN


Welcome to another sensational challenge at 


We are sponsored this time by Art by Miran


 Our challenge is "No Design Paper"

When I saw the images I just had to choose this one.  My niece is turning 13 soon.  Finally a teenager.  Although, she has been testing our nerves for years practicing to be a teenager.  She has perfected it.  This was just so cute I thought Cortlynn would just love it.  Her birthday isn't until December so I am hiding it until then.  She caught me working on it and had a request.  She wanted a pop out card.  So I have it popped out on the inside.  It isn't quite finished inside yet so I can't include a picture of that part.  

Since we could not use design papers, I did some embossing and then added some distress ink to create a background.  I hope she likes it.  I have a Top Tip for fussy cutting.  If you are doing a fussy cut and also using some type of substance that needs to dry, add your craft item first and let it dry.  It will help when doing the fussy cut to have a harder substance on smaller areas.  I use Glossy Accents a lot and also glitter glues.  I have used the Glossy Accents on the boots to give them the look I want and also to give them strength when I did my fussy cut.

Please check out all the wonderful DT creations at Crafting When We Can.  I do hope you will join us for this challenge.  Thanks so much for stopping by.  See you soon!

She will love it! I love the tip about adding glossy accents to make it stronger and easier to cut. And I like how the mats are off center. Great job!
