Crafty Gals Corner - Challenge #103 - Anything Goes - post 4 of 4

It's time for another challenge with us at the



This week we are letting our creative juices flow with
Challenge #103 Anything Goes
AND our
2nd Annual Blog Hop

We have lots of generous sponsors, lots of prizes and lots of creative inspiration to share for Challenge #103 at the Crafty Gals Corner this week.  This is the first of three projects I have to share today, so I hope you will check out the other projects I have created and all the fabulous projects created by the Crafty Gals Corner Design Team too.

Full details about the awesomeness of Challenge #103 with the Crafty Gals Corner, all of our generous sponsors & prizes, links for our Blog Hop & prizes and my giveaway can be found HERE.


Today I have used the Gingerbread Bestie img815 My Besties
digital stamp from Sherri Baldy Designs, one of our generous sponsors this week.


I printed two images on a sheet of A5 X-Press It Blending card and coloured her in using Copic markers (details below), fussy cut then went around the edges using my Memento Tuxedo Black Dual Brush marker.

I saw a super cute gingerbread house flexi card in the Silhouette Design Store and thought that it would make a fun scene and base for her.  I enlarged the file so that it was just under 6" wide (the maximum I could cut from a 12x12" sheet of cardstock).

I used a combination of direct adhering (where bottom of dress touches the snowy slope) and foam dots of different thickenesses, so that she sits "flat, facing forward" when the curves of the card are in place.

Even with the foam dots, the card still folds flat enough for mailing.
