Inkspirational Challenges - Use Your Stash


Our new challenge at Inkspirational, chosen by Carol, is to 'use your stash'. 

For my DT project I used both physical stash (the cards and glitter card) and 'virtual' stash - the cutting files and graphics. 

After making this card for my son, vaguely inspired by our love of The Greatest Showman, I became a bit worried that it might be a bit too 'babyish' for him - but in fact it was kept out when the other cards were put away and much played with by friends! I think it's the way the numbers pop out ....

The base is a Lori Whitlock SVG file that I have adapted many times. The sentiment and numbers were designed and cut on the Silhouette. The graphics are by Lettering Delights - they were already coloured but I went over the barbel and the balloon with coloured shimmer pens. 

Lindsey, from Bashful Blogging is still with us as Guest Designer, and I hope you'll join in our challenge.

    so pleased your son and his friends liked the card and I can see why they liked the numbers-it does look a lot of fun to play with. Fab images and such a good design-no idea how to make a card like this but you sure did it in style x

    I imagine this isn’t the easiest type of card to make, I’d struggle to cover all three panels with corresponding themed images and die cuts. I think this is fun, plenty colorful and not at all baby-ish.
