Kraftyhands February Challenge

Welcome to the first challenge of 2014 at Kraftyhands. We have a new schedule for this year. The challenges will all run from the 7th of the month to the 6th of the following month. So make sure you put the dates in your diary.
The theme for this challenge is:
"Spring Flowers"
and is just for fun. We would love you to use a Kraftyhands product somewhere on your card, but it's not necessary. We do ask though that you follow the challenge blog.

There are so many fabulous crafty items available in the Kraftyhands webshop  including the In Sympathy CD that I have used for my card today. There are so many lovely toppers, card sets, inserts and more on this CD. They don't have to be used for for sympathy cards, but it is a very handy CD to have in your collection for those awkward times when a compassionate card is needed.


I started by printing a blank insert from the CD and matting it onto silver mirri card. I then wrapped a length of blue lace around the layers and fixed them onto a 6"x 6" card blank. I added a couple of  yellow flowers.


I chose the circular pansy topper image for my card and matted it onto silver mirri card. I did the same with the small pansy circle.

Please visit the  Kraftyhands Challenge Blog for a full set of the challenge rules - you have to be a follower to qualify for entry - and to view the fabulous creations from the talented DT. You can also keep up to date with all the latest Kraftyhands news and see sneak peeks on the Kraftyhands Facebook page and the Kraftyhands Blog.
And don't forget that the Kraftyhands boys are Create and Craft at 11 am this morning with their latest CD.
