Decoupage.

There are a few challenges at the moment were I am able to enter a couple of cards that I have recently made. The first one is in the Cards for Men - decoupage challenge (no.17):


The decoupage and papers where part of a set (papermania) I think, I have added some cricket bats & red card candy where I have added gold pen for a stitched effect to make them look like cricket balls.

It was quite tricky cutting out the cricketer - I think I will stick with pre-cut decoupages next time - lol.

Thanks for looking x

    Great card Ali, love the colour of the DP. I used to do a lot of decoupage, the cutting out sort, not sure I'd have the patience now!

    Great card!!! It's so hard doing cards for men.

    I love decoupage - you get such a great result for minimum effort (can you tell I usually use die cut ones?) LOL

    Fab card, what a great idea to put the stitched effect on the card candy so it looks like a cricket ball. x
