We are still celebrating our "Get Into Shape" month at The Cuttlebug Spot and are launching our brand new challenge today. We would like to see...
Circles
You can choose how to incorporate a circle in any way you like - it couldn't be easier.
I decided to be on the ball with my Mam's birthday card this year as her birthday isn't until the end of February. Inspiration just came to me! And here is my circles card...
I started with a 6" Hunkydory card blank and placed a circles That Special Touch mask on top. I spritzed through it using a Mister Huey spray in silver. It has a lovely iridescent shimmer when moved in the light. The teal card was embossed with a Cuttlebug embossing folder in the From My Kitchen set. The corners were rounded with an X-Cut corner punch. It is really good at chomping through the double cardstock layer. I added a strip of black card and some silver ribbon before attaching to the card blank.
Using my Cuttlebug, I cut two circle layers, one from Spellbinders Standard Circles Large and the other from Spellbinders Standard Circles Small which are the perfect increments for layering. My sewing machine came from Spellbinders Sewing Elements and I used a silver mirri-card for this. I took a sanding block to the sewing machine to distress it a little in keeping with the inky background. My finishing touch was to add three gems to the top right-hand corner. These came from Create and Craft. I may add another circle to showcase a sentiment but have left it for now.
I would like to enter this card into the following challenge:
