Truly Scrumptious - Hidden Message


As soon as I saw the challenge over at Truly Scrumptious this week I have been itching to have a go
There is a fab sketch to follow with a twist..........the sketch has a hidden tag where you put a message
So here is my entry









I have used 'Football Miki' and coloured him with ProMarkers
I tried something different today by making my own buttons from a Football stamp a few layers of card and 'Glossy Accents'.
I saw this done on a tutorial you can see it here......and I instantly fell in love with the idea
I just love how they turned out and will definately be making more in all sorts of colour shapes and sizes lol!

Hi again JAnet, thanks for the tip, I'll have a look for some (any excuse to shop for stash!) For the circle card, before I decorated the front, I put it on my craft mat and aligned the fold with the grid, then cut a little sliver off the bottom of the back of the card leaving a straight edge for it to rest on, I hope that makes sense!

Love Beth xx
