Shape Up!

Published by Shel9999 at 10:00 am under Cornish Heritage Farms, My Designs

TGIM!   :)   This week’s challenge at Cornish Heritage Farms is to make a shaped card.   I really had to put on my thinking cap for this one.  I had a few different ideas (tried to make a rocket but it looked more like a candy corn), wasted a bunch of paper and decided to simplify things and make a planet.

Hey Dude

    HDAP

I used a circle cutter for the planet then free-handed the ring.  The sign, ring, alien and his big eyeball are all popped up.  I dotted over all the dots, centers of HDACUthe circles and the alien’s eyes with a clear 3-d gel pen.  I adhered the assembled panel to a card front then used scissors to trim around the circle shape.

Be sure to visit these other CHF designers to see their shaped cards.  I can’t wait to see them! :)
