Inchie and Cards
Hello to everyone who drops by Jumbled Crafts. A bit dull here at the moment but supposed to be sunshine later so fingers crossed
At Every Inchie Monday this week the theme is dark
I immediately thought of Pink Floyd's Dark Side of the moon and used their album cover as my inchie for this week.
I made some birthday cards yesterday for friends and neighbours whose birthdays are very soon.
The backing for this is cream card and I distressed the edges then I added a piece from an old canvas map for the next layer. The animal print card was from Valerie :) and the image GeckoGalz.
This one is for a friend who loves going on cruises so she can get dressed up--my worst nightmare I'm afraid.
I made the peacock feather background then added the black silhouette die cut with a bit of glitter. On top of that I added the white die cut and some black jewel stones. The other bits are peel-offs.
This card fulfils a challenge set for me by Max when she sent me these die cuts and some others and even the card they had been cut from so I could use those as stencils. Thank you Max :)
Thank you for calling in and have a great day everyone
Love Chrissie x
Love your creations Chrissie ! Love the map in the background of the first card ! Hugs, blessings and love from Catherine
ReplyDeleteWell done Chrissie I knew you would find something clever to do with the bits I sent you .... There was no rush !! Walks Olympics & rugby must take priority
ReplyDeletehugs Max x
Your inchie is perfection - how did you get the lettering so neat. I've just come across my very old copy of the album during my decluttering - happy days :)
ReplyDeleteGreat minds think alike ;)
ReplyDeletegreat inchie, dont know how you manage in such a small space!hugs trace x
ReplyDeleteDark side of the moon came to mind but I was not sure I could do it justice with my limited supplies....the cards you've made are also lovely, I'm not one for cruises either as I am not one for glamming up any more but some of my friends just love the idea of dressing for dinner etc.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm a bit like my stepdaughter - dressing for dinner means putting on a clean top :-)

Your Inchie is great. I LOVE the card and what you said. I couldn't wait to retire so I could toss out everything that wasn't blue jeans and t-shirts :)
ReplyDeleteLove your dark inchie and your birthday cards.

ReplyDeleteDark side of the moon - so iconic and such a great inchie. Fab bday cards too - I particularly love the man in the wind - perfect match of sentiment and image. Marina
