 Hi Everyone here I am with my first DT card for today, it's for the new challenge at QKR. Our challenge is on the 1st and 15th of every month, so you have 2 chances every month to enter the challenge.

We will select two winners each of the weeks 
1 using QKR Stampede  or Eureka Stamps image
 and 1 using any image!

Anything Goes every 1st & 15th of the month

My card today came together quite quickly, you know, when an image you see and words come into your head, it happened on this one, simple I know, but I actually love how this card came about. 

It was finding wood paper and a flame in my files, which thankfully I had, adding an oval shape for the sentiment and space for the matches, then printing the paper out after I had added the large flame image to it in Photoshop. I added another of the flame image to Silhouette and print and cut it out 4 times after making it smaller of course. I layered it off each layer to simulate a flame moving.

I then added the matches image to Silhouette, printed the image out, then added a gold foil frame to it with the WRMK Foil Quill pen. I coloured it with Distress inks and 3D layered it onto the card. I also added some clear sparkle pen to the flame.
