Daring Card Makers - September Elemental Inspiration

I've used the ice lolly, waves, lettering, dark blue, cyan blue and clean lines.  The ice lolly is from Polkadoodles - Winnie Starfish and Sandcastles download and I've coloured it with Promarkers.

I've scored a border around the edge of the card and the waves die is from Memory Box and I've used scraps from my big folder.  The sentiment is an unbranded die and it cuts beautifully!

Anything Goes

And the DT were challenge to the theme of Great Outdoors

I've used the Foxy Fun die from the Great Outdoors collection and used papers from the Hair / Skin / Fur paper pack and the patterned background from The Great Outdoors A5 paper pad.  I've cut a frame using the Fabulous Mitred Frames die.

And to finish off I've used my own Sizzix lettering dies to spell out the word Fox.  So very cute!  I really do enjoy making things other than cards and I like the idea of adding these as a feature on a wall!  I made a whole set of them with all the different dies - just now where to hang them!
