GD @ Crafty Creations Challenges

Last month Amy from Crafty Creations Challenges sent me an email to ask if I would be interested in Guest Designing for July. Of course I agreed! I feel absolutely honoured to be working together with a talented team like CCC! Guest designing can be soooo fun!

For the first week we get to work with BlackLeaf Designs - using some Paris images! Something that is close to my heart, because of the many memorable things that happened to me while I was there several years back. Out of the 4 months that I spent in France studying the language, 1/4 of the time I was in Paris.

The challenge is to make anything but a card and I'm altering a used tub of ready-made frosting. Ah, look...there's Polka, she loves anything sweet!

And here's what I came up with! (3 different angles)

Supplies: Empty frosting tub, BlackLeaf digi stamp, American crafts flowers, i-Top brad, paper doily, alphabet stickers, EK success sentiment stamp, Glue dots, Adhesive runner, MME pattern paper, Diecuts courtesy of Sandy Ang, stickles.

I printed the Eiffel tower and postage stamp on a piece of MME patterned paper and wrapped around the tub. And then I added some paper doilies on the lid and the sides. After that I fussy cut the sign and the poodle that was printed on a separate piece of glossy paper and layered it on the patterned paper. I found that it was too empty for my liking, so in the end I added some flowers on to the lid as well as some die cuts I found in my stash (thanks Sandy!).

Hope you'll play along Crafty Creations Challenges this week!
