It's the first Saturday of the month so it's time for a new challenge at Crafty Calendar.
with a fab prize of 7 digi stamps
They very kindly provided images for the Design Team to use and I chose 'Crab Boat' to make my card.
To start off I pulled the image into Craft Artist and sized it to fit a 6"x6" card. I added the sentiment using the Smarty Pants font and printed the project onto white card.
I thought the crab would look fab paper-pieced so I had a look through my stash of patterned papers and found a K&Co pad called Hopscotch full of lovely bright colours.
Making sure I didn't change the size of the image, I printed onto several different papers in the pad and then cut out the sails/boat/crab/sea in the colour/pattern I wanted.
I glued each piece into place on the base image with a Sakura Quickie Glue pen and added pale blue highlights to the cloud and his eyes with a Graph'It marker (7105)
The theme this time is 'Summer Fun' and our sponsor is
