If you didn't see this month's challenge in the forum it's here. I thought I might link up some more of the shaped cards that I have in my SSD gallery to give you some inspiration if you're stuck.

Wow, there're all wonderful - but I think my fave is your most recent one - the boot. Its a lot of fun and looks amazing!

...I've printed my image out and just have to assemble my card (sometime soon-ish).

I have a few projects like this sitting on my desk - just waiting for more hours in the day!!

I saw that boot in the preview of Krystals kit and begged her to let me play. My tip for today ;) is to look at the shape/element etc. and think how you could make it look more 'real'. For example on the boot, I punched holes and put my own shoe lace in using ribbon, printed two doors and layered one over the other with foam pads to make it stand out and added some jewel flowers to make little window boxes.

I can't wait to see what everyone comes up with
 
Wow Andrea! Those are amazing! Love all the little extra touches you put on your cards!

I think I may have to build my stash a little more instead of just drooling when I go in the LSS with my paper scrapping friends. LOL
 
Graduation Card for my niece

You really inspired me! I don't think I have ever made a shaped card before and I really like how mine turned out!!

I gave some instructions in the gallery on how I did this...it stands up and the girl holds the diploma in her hand (with money rolled up inside the diploma). I really had fun with it and can't wait for my niece to see it on Saturday!
