Gorjuss Maiden

I've been having fun doing this for the week 9 challenge at the Sugar Bowl. The challenge is to make a card for a man. Well that is right up my street...........I get to make quite a lot of cards for men for one reason or another...........however the choice of ready made bits and pieces is not always in my taste so I tend to make up my own.

If your man is a cricket fan...............then the choice is even more limited..............so here is my entry aimed at the cricket fan in your life celebrating a big year.

I used some of the K & Co papers from Lyndsay again and added a bit of some Provo Craft paper that had keys on it................beautiful paper and this is the first time I have cut into it...deep intake of breath!...........I must have had it at least 8 years!!!!!!!........adding my little dots stamp on the edges again.

I cut out the cricket ball from Bazzill card and hand stitched the seams with thread...............I then drew the cricket bails that sit on top of the stumps and cut them out so that the Gorjuss one could steady herself on top of the ball..........Gorjuss & bails coloured with DI's and Adirondack......The sentiment was made using my Serif programme as was the Ow Zat! circular embellishment that I then punched out with a scallop edged circular punch........The paper that looks like cork is my own design.

Thanks for looking.

Have a fabby creative week.
