Game On!

2 Daring Cardmakers' cards today, the first for Rein's amazing dare, 

Fun and Games

I'd like you to make a card which also has a little extra element of fun :

*It could include a game for the recipient to play

*Or you could put moving things on your card such as flapping wings or wheels that really work

*Or it can bee an advent calendar card with doors and windows  to open...

This was such a tricky dare :) my DCM teamies have been so much more creative than I have been! 

I made this;

and the second that I made for last week's dare but didn't quite get around to uploading it....(sorry Lythan!)

using more Crate Paper, Bazzill Kraft, Ribbon Girl Twine coloured with a ProMarker and a teeny Papermania adhesive gem.

and a sneak peek at a party set that I made for Sizzix;
