Playing Card Fun xx

Hello there lovelies - Hope the sun is agreeing with you?  I've been having fun inside because the sun is not my best friend!!

I've been having a great time playing with extra large playing cards this summer.  I bought them a while ago but hadn't really done anything with them so i decided the time was right.  They have been a fantastic size to work with,  not too big, not too small......just right... just like in Goldilocks ha ha ha.

I've not used them all yet but i'm having so much fun with them.

I have used similar techniques with them all such as stamping,  modelling paste through stencils, and using vintage imagery from all different sources.  I have a lot of crafty stuff so to keep me from getting overwhelmed at the choice of things i decided to use a limited amount of product.  

Here are the ones that i've done so far

I have entered this playing card in Everybody Art Challenge - butterflies

I have entered this playing card in the Craftstamper Take it Make it challenge

I have entered this card in Everybody art Challenge - Butterflies

 and Crafty Gals Corner - anything goes

I have entered this card in the Petal Lu Challenge blog - anything goes 

I have entered this card in We love to create blog - anything mixed media/Creative goes

I have entered this card in the Crafty Sentiments Design challenge - lots of layers

I have entered this challenge in Try it on Tuesday - children

The pictures that were used on most of these were cut out of magazines and old books i found in charity shops.  The vintage pictures were from Tim Holtz lost relatives pack and selected ephemera packs from Amazon.

I am really enjoying this project and i make sure that i do at least two a day.

I hope you have enjoyed this little journey I've been on and please do continue to join me when I've completed it

Thank you for popping in 

Take care and see you soon

Jo
