Charisma Cardz - Chipboard or Stickers



Morning :) Back today with a card for our new challenge over at Charisma Cardz, where the theme this week is 'Chipboard or Stickers'.  We have 2 fabby sponsors this week:

&
So, doubly worth playing along! :)

For my card I coloured a gorgeous Crafts & Me Digi stamp with PM's and added some Medallion glitter and Sakura crystal star pen for highlights.  I hand-stitched and hand-beaded round the edges of the paper ( I received this in a paper-swap, so I have no idea what it is - lol)  I inked the embossed panel behind the image with Distress Ink, and found the old chipboard sticker in my stash, so just sanded it and roughed it up a bit.  The dies are spellbinder, and the flowers are WOC.

I will be entering this card in the below competitions:

Crafty Catz Challenge - use a Digi
The Stamp Man Challenge - Bingo - Green, Flowers, Swirls
Stampin for the Weekend - Anything Goes
ABC Challenge - M is for Magical
Cupcake Craft Challenges - Sewing box - I chose beads and stitching
Papertake Weekly - Anything Goes
Simon Says Stamp - Favourite Tool - Die-Cutter
Divas By Design - Anything Goes
Fab n' Funky Challenges - Embossing

Thanks so much for checking out my blog again today, and believe it or not I will be back again tomorrow with my 3rd and final basket to share.  Have a smashing day! :)
