Getting Corrugated...

Hi all :) This week it is Jo here to set the dare...


I seem to have developed a little bit of a fixation with old cardboard boxes....! My dare this week is to use some corrugated card on your card - it could be corrugated craft card or an old box etc. taken to pieces :) You could make the card blank from it or die cut shapes etc...

When you've finished your cardboard card creations, leave a comment with a link to your blog post and we'll come and see. You can also take part even if you dont have a blog by emailing a photo or scan to daringcardmakers@hotmail.co.uk and we'll add it to our gallery. The design team, as always have a fantastic array of cards to get the inspiration flowing....

Tough challenge this week, but great inspirations as usual. Mine's on my blog.

Susan (Sue H) said...

I found this one so difficult because I never buy craft stuff on line so I didn't have a box to snaffle the corrugated card from (believe that and you'll believe anything lol)

My card's here along with last weeks little extra too.
