18 Shield

 I thought I'd make a different style of shaped card today using the Brother Scan N Cut. Instead of the

 usual number card that I make, 

I made a shield shaped card with the use of the weld button. 

I also welded a scroll to the bottom of the inside in order to make it stand up .

A bit of embossing, some inky stitching and some distress inks, some welded numbers plus an 8 and some foam pads complete my card.

I'm using this card for the following challenges:-

Fitztown 42, Anything goes,

TTPH48, No right angles,

PCC13, Anything goes.

Book, Bath And Bed!

Ages ago I dropped the book I was reading in the bath, I'm sure I'm not the only person to have ever done this but you know what us crafters are like, we can't throw anything. Luckily the quick dunk it received didn't ruin it completely, it just fell into sections and only the cover and a few pages from the front and back had to be disposed of. I've used some pages before to make flowers from and cut the odd word from it to add to collaged cards.

Anyway, this week's theme at Less is More had me flicking through what was left and finding suitable words to punch hearts from. The fragile pages needed to be stuck to copy paper to be strong enough not to get stuck in the punch.

Here's what I came up with.

I'm using this card for the following challenges:-

LIM178, Recycle.
