Fashionista Challenge - Anniversary

Good Afternoon
My first post of the week and it is a very special post as it is the end of our first challenge over at Fashionista Challenge Blog. What a month it has been for us, a new challenge blog and we received over 160 entries, we are little different as the DT decide on our Top 5 and then we let you vote for the winner, who will always get a super prize, so definiately worth dropping over and joining in our challenge. This month it was won by Alyce who submitted a brilliant card.

We now have a DT of 10 fantastic crafters and we are sponsors by some very big names, all this in a month, we are going to go from strength to strength.

This months theme is

Wedding, Anniversary or Shower

Our Sponsor is Inky Impressions

So on to my project for this month, I have made an explosion box for my beautiful step-daughter, Jessica and her husband Elliot for their first wedding anniversary. I designed the stationery for their wedding last year so I was able to use the same coloured card and paper, also the J&E were the same as on their stationery.

First two pictures are the box closed, then the lid comes off.

To reveal pictures from the wedding and a second box. 

Then the second lid comes off to reveal...

Sorry it is so picture heavy but I love this box and cannot wait to give it to them in June. 

Don't forget to drop over to Fashionista and see the ABSOLUTLEY fantastic creations from my team mates.

Anything Goes at Anything Goes

Hi everyone
Today we have a new challenge at Anything Goes and our theme this week is Anything Goes - how easy it that!!!  Please do drop over to Anything Goes and see what the other DT members have created.
I wanted to make an engagement card for a lovely young couple, so without further ado here is my card.

My card is a double gate fold card, with a belly band, I punched a border to the belly band, covered with wide ribbon and lace and then a spellbinder heart die and flowers. 

The top of the card pulls out to reveal a message, and then the belly band pulls off to reveal the inside of the card.

The image is from Lili of the Valley, the sentiments are all computer generated. 

The image is coloured with Copics you can get a great selection of Copics at the Craft Den together with Spellbinder dies and all your other crafting needs. 

The back is also fully covered.

Hope you like my card
