UnstampaBelles Challenge #2 - August - Wheels

The second challenge for UnstampaBelles Challenge starts today.

Firstly, some housekeeping  ;-)

There are some Rule changes to take effect from Challenge Two, and they are:



No Stamps! This means no rubber stamps, no digital stamps, clipart or line art which includes pre-coloured versions. Inclusive of sentiment stamps.


Due to graphic technology any entry with a graphic image will be subject to the Design Teams' discretion and we will contact you if we feel the entry does not meet the ethos of our challenge blog.

As a bonus from this challenge onwards, we will be adding a technique challenge. This will not be a requirement for an entry but if you do use the nominated technique in your project, it will count as two entries for you.



This month's theme is Wheels, and our sponsor is Kelly, from Kel's Kaszazz Kaleidoscope .

August Challenge will close Friday, 2nd September and winner will be announced when Challenge #3 is posted, on Monday, 5th September 2011.

Now, for my DT entry

Expanding on from my quest to make 'non girly' male cards, I have been making a concerted effort to try and change my shopping habits.   Most of my DPs are floral, most my craft supplies tend to be on the pink/purple/lavender side and most of my other crafting goodies have a decided feminine style to them ;-)

I recently came across some new (well, new to me) 3D Decoupage sheets at a local craft show, where BlueEdge Crafts has a stall every year.

It is so nice to go to this craft show, as it is small, but lots of variety, and busy, but no so busy that you can't get to see all the craft wares.

So here is my card for the 'wheels' challenge.







Cardstock & DP from BlueEdge Crafts, 3D image sheet HERE
sentiment is a rub-on


Image layered with foam dots and placed on pearl cardstock, layered again on burgundy bazzil cardstock, then layered on DP, distressed along edges and placed on square black card.



Pop on over to the UnstampaBelles Challenge blog, and be inspired by the other DT entries.
