Hello
Welcome to my little crafting place!
My card today is for Joanne's Daring Cardmakers Challenge this week
Fun and Games
It's Joanne here this week and I'd like to challenge you to a game of something!
It might be an indoor one (like Kerplunk, Twister, Snakes and Ladders, Dungeons and Dragons...) or outdoor (football, netball, rugby, hockey...). The best part? You get to be creative, somebody receives a lovely handmade card — nobody loses this game!
First of all, appologies for the rubbish photo! I sent this before I'd checked the photos and this is the best I have - if you think this is bad, be glad its the only one I'm sharing!
I found a hockey background paper design on the internet. I resized and printed it on to a textured Bazzill cardstock then adhered it to my base card.
Next I found a picture of a hockey stick to use as a template. In my graphics program (Paint Shop Pro) I copied and pasted so that I had two, then used the mirror tool to reverse one. I resized and printed them out, but just on copier paper this time.
I glued the template hockey sticks to the back of some black card to make it easy to cut them out with scissors, then just cut the trimming strips and stuck them on the right sides
The sentiment was cut in matching colours using one of my alphabet die sets and to finish the card I added some hockey balls using some red 'card candy'
Thank you so much for coming by
Happy Crafting, Take care of yourself,

ReplyDeleteI remember hockey as a bit of a hectic sport — your background paper is perfect for that vibe! Great card for the theme Kathy, love the little finishing details.
ReplyDeleteYou are such a creative and clever girl, Kathy :-)! Creating such a cool sporty card with "material" you found online.
