Faux Thanks!




Managed to finish off the toppers I started yesterday and got another card off my "To do" list.


The toppers are a simplified version of last Friday's DCM Dare..I loved doing this and think I will make many more versions in the future, thank you for such an inspiring Dare!!!


I have also attempted today's DCM Extra challenge "Faking it!! Not sure if it really fits the criteria but here goes:
Chipboard circle tag, cut using Sizzix Circle Frame Combo
"Ribbon" effect using a scrap of dotty paper..colours just matched perfectly.

"Ric-Rac" stem, cut using QK die (the first time I have used it!!BLUSH)
"Flower "Button" lifted idea from the teams creation!! ( another blush)
Wording stolen from the Pen Tidy Challenge on Bumbleberry Crafts!!! (triple blush)


And yeaaaahhh....only 6 more Teacher's cards to make!!

I love the way you have done the card. And adapting other people's ideas is fine - I might use your phrase on the thank you card I need to do!
