| I have made squares out of shapes in PS and backed them with Summer Driggs Sweetcake papers, I then printed and cut them out, Stickled them, tried them in all shapes then decided, by accident after speaking to SIL about the card, on cutting them interconnecting. I then arranged the text on the card hoping to get it at the right angle, I was glad I hadn't stuck the squares together before printing the text, it's only just in the middle of the squares, I then 3d the cupcake and stickled. |

Birthday card
I had to make a card for my great nephew, so I thought I would use the 3 squares for the Less is More challenge, I think it's OK, but I know there are lessons and hints to be learned so here it is. It may be too fussy for a CAS card.

I love your take on this challenge - different to a lot of the other squares! What a fun card for a kid!
ReplyDeleteI love how you have interlinked these cards... super idea and very original!
ReplyDeleteI don't think that it's too fussy for a CAS card at all.. if i were to make any suggestion at all it would be to have the cake just a tad higher, but I think it's just great!
Thanks for joining us once more and see you next time!

What a great card, such a brilliant idea to interlink the squares.
ReplyDeleteAnother brilliant idea for the three squares! I've seem some amazing ideas this week. Love the colours and the little sentiments inside each square. I think Chrissie is right, move the cake up a little so there's some white space beneath it. Love this though.
