DCM ~ Shabby Saturday Sketch

This card uses the sketch from this week's Daring Card Makers' challenge on their blog HERE. The prize is being sponsored by one of my DT bosses, Anice from Funky Hand. It is a free dowload of the wonderful 'Shabby Saturday' papers, which I've used here. (The numbers, the brackets and the green flowers are all from the Shabby Saturday download, as well. The 'Happy Birthday' sentiment is from the 'Now That's Funky' CD-Rom, also from Funky Hand. If you'd like to browse the range of CDs and downloads available from Funky Hand, go to Anice's web-site, HERE. Highly recommended, but then I would say that, wouldn't I? lol ;o) I do admit I am biased, but I love the papers!!)

If you would like to see Anice herself, and you're not doing anything at 9.00am this Thursday 11th September, she will be appearing on Create & Craft offering some inspiration on how to use some of the papers from her CDs.


Other items used: Piece of leftover Basic Grey paper, Rhonna Farrer flourish stamp, a stitches stamp, Making Memories 'Heidi' rub-on letters, some Craft Planet irridescent glitter glue, some brads and twine, and some doodling on the brackets.
