Challenge #56 - Kit card

Please check the post below for the winner of challenge #55

Our challenge this week is set by America :~ Kit Card!

America kindly sent our DT members a kit to use to produce a card. We were only allowed to use what was in the kit aswell as our own tools. As it is impossible to send you all a kit we would like you to take a look at what America sent us and try to reproduce the kit (don't worry if it's not exactly the same or even if you only have a few items that you could use). This may seem like a tough one but it's one to really get you thinking!!

Here's what the kit contained.........

Colour theme - Brown and Cream
1 x spotty/patterned paper
Brown Ribbon
Silver thread
Charm
Stamped image
Sentiment
Swirl die-cut (or something similar)
embossed card (brown or cream or both)
Pearls (or diamontes)

Remember that you can use as much or as little listed above. Good luck and i can't
wait to see what you come up with.


There is a fantastic prize up for grabs again this week from........

House Mouse site

Heathers kit didn't arrive before she left for a holiday so Heathers is a good example of reproducing the kit.

I love how different all of these cards are given that you used the same supplies ... it just shows how truly creative you all are. Great job House-Mouse DT team! And great idea for a challenge America. Keep on stampin' on!

Drat, I had my card done yesterday, just didn't get it photo'd and posted until today. I didn't have a flourish so I didn't fully meet the challenge, but still want to share my card.
