Cheers! Brown leather look card

Hi Crafty Friends,

Just in case you missed my other blog post - I've been setting up an Instagram account for my cards so it's nice and easy to see all my cards in one place now rather than scrolling through my blog! I love it and I hope you will too, if you want to follow me on Instagram please, please do! Click HERE to be taken to my gallery. You don't need to have an account to see my gallery (I don't think, I'm still new to Instagram myself hehe). I've added over 100 cards already, I'm going through all my photos and just choosing my favourite cards over the past 8 years, I'm only up to 2014! 


Ok, so now onto my last card for today and I've created a really masculine card. I used an old Bobunny paper for this. I cut each section, added some foam tape behind each one and added them to a black cardstock. It's so hard to describe the best way to do this and that's when I really wish I had a Youtube channel! I heat embossed the Cheers sentiment.

I am entering this card into the following challenges:

A Gem of a Challenge -  anything goes wk21
CCC Digi Creations -  Autumn
Crafty Catz - anything goes with optional: dressing up 

Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper -  anything goes with patterned paper
