Crafting Live Doncaster Paper Kit Challenge

I set myself a challenge of making cards using one of each of the toppers from the card kit I was given at the Doncaster Crafting Live Event. I gave myself a weekend to make them. The craft kit is massive because there are four of each toppers plus matching background papers, which makes it easy to craft with. The cards cover a variety of topics and could be used for many different occasions. These are the cards I came up with.
I used the Tattered Lace half circles to make this rocker card.The flowers are cut from 
the tattered Lace tuck in dies.

The toppers come with the look that they have already been matted and layered which saves time and paper.


The toppers fitted very nicely into this card blank I had in my craft stash.

I just used some ribbon and a resin embellishment to finish this card.

I used the Tattered Lace oval create a card die to create this lovely card shape.

The sentiment was cut out using one of the dies that comes with a tag, from tattered lace.

I used the Tonic pop up die to make this card.

You can see how the backing papers that come with the kit match well together.

Some of the toppers have mini matching toppers which helps bring the card design together.

I love the Tattered Lace midi stepper card shape. You can cut two cards from one A4 card sheet, which makes it very economical.

I had this purple card, which |I thought tied in with the purple on the pansies.

These cats are so much fun. I love cats anyway The layered shape of the card helps you to create a scene,


I folded a card in half and used the topper to make a stepper card. Ovals were layered up with foam pads to form the stopper and a few daisies fit in with the background paper.

I adore these duck characters. they are so much fun. I used the Freshwater Friends dies to create the embellishments.

The dragonflies were cut from a foil like material.



I made quite a few of the midi side stepper cards because I think they are really effective.


These ducks could even be used for a wedding or anniversary card. they are so cute.


I made a rocker card using the Tattered Lace  half circles and used the heart tuck ins as embellishments.

These fairies would make lovely cards for young girls or those young in heart.


I used one of the Tattered Lace embossing folders to create the background.


I used the colour from the fairy`s belt to match the colours I chose.
Another variation of the rocking card.

I had a thank you card for a little girl so this was just what I needed.

The cloud background paper from the kit exactly matches the topper.

You cans see how the background papers match in so well with the toppers. They are so easy to use.

I love the Tattered Lace tuck in flowers. They look effective on so many cards.

The beautiful harvest background paper looks as though it was originally hand-painted. It is fab!

Again you can see how the background papers match so well with the toppers.
I enjoyed my challenge very much and really recommend crafting with this kit.
