Peek A Boo Gear Stenciled Designer Challenge Card

Good morning friends

Welcome to the Karen Burniston's May 2016 Designer Challenge - Stage it Stencils. The fun thing about stencils, is you get to choose the colour and mediums you use and they are good for all kinds of genre. After yesterday's artsy card, today's card is decidedly cute and made for our Grandson Ilai.

I used the Oval Pull Card and blue card stock for the card base, and then cut the white panels with the Pull Card Edges. Those were then pounced with die ink through the Gears stencil to create my own patterned paper.

I also cut gears from the Clock & Gears set as well as the new Steampunk Charms and added them to the card front and stuffed them into the barrel too along with a dog bone from Props 4.



Over the holidays I received a catalogue with a beautiful rustic wood textured cover. I saved that and used part of it to cut the Barrel/Basket. It looks so realistic!



Using the included slot and slider, I added the filled barrel which hides Buster the Dog. Buster  is revealed when the card is opened. 






Be sure to check out what the rest of the Designer Challenge Team has come up with for this fun challenge, and Karen Burniston will have her post tomorrow (Wednesday) on her BLOG

I'm going for some yucky dental work today, and expect to be out of commission for a day or two because of the pain meds. I'm a slow healer because of the RA drugs.  Fun and games!
