DCM & 4x4 Friday

I got this DCM card made yesterday but was too tired to upload it after I had struggled to get a decent photo. Then promptly forgot all about it today until I remembered it was the Saturday Stamper & I coldn't get online to see what this week's challenge was. Server problems are to blame & unfortunately they can't make them work any faster. Back up servers just aren't powerful enough to cope with all our internet hungry homes! The card is just something rustic I made & don't even like now I look at it. The bits are all from a kit of card making supplies I bought about two years ago & never used.

The 4x4 Friday challenge is Faces. I love this little girl's face. She is on the stamp in my tag below. The stamp CI. I stamped the corners of the 4in square card with these floral stamps in purple & then inked the rest of the page in gold & touches of orange. The girl is stamped onto a jigsaw piece. These 4x4 inc pieces are not cards, just a square which at later dates I might add to the front of 5in cards or larger as toppers. Or I might make a minibook of them all, the possibilities are endless I just need to feel better.

Like you said the 4x4 have so much possibilities Paula. Funny how we create something and then we go hmm I don't like it. I thought your card was very cute though.

2 great cards Paula, I love the hessian you have used on the first one I use it quite often but I agree with you about corrugated card, I'm not very keen on it. i had to rip up my welly box to get some! The 4x4 is so beautiful, great colours and such a pretty stamp
