3+ Brads

Its challenge time again over at CCW & I was asked to be a Guest Designer - yay!
Perfect timing as it was also my nephews birthday so a card was called for.
I photoshop'd an image of Thunderbird 3 to change the numbers 3 to 7 to match my nephews age. I also downloaded the Thunderbirds font to write "Birthday".
Having printed it out I then mounted it twice before applying the brads & eyelet .... here I came upon a problem, I didnt have any that actually matched the colour scheme :-O Hellllllloooooooo can of red spray paint :-D The brads took the colour nicely & with a light coat the eyelet showed a hint of navy through on the dips which went nicely with the navy mounting.
Having attached the brads & eyelet I could finish off by fastening it all to the card, hiding the slightly unsightly back.

So whats the Creative Craft World Challenge this week? To use 3 or more brads on a card ...  its a simple challenge that I'm sure many of you can join in with so why not ..... especially when it gives you the chance of winning 5 promarkers!!!

Also go take a gander HERE if you fancy being a Guest Designer yourself :-)
