CLOWNS BIRTHDAY

 Hello everyone,

I'm on my new PC, I like it very much, the only thing I hate, is, every single time I have to login, to blogger, facebook, stores, and all sorts of places, apparently it is a new security load of bull, and I have to comply, so frustrating though, takes time..and blogger I need it now not logging in then confirm on your phone " Yes it's me "..gosh, I will be glad when that has gone..any ideas??

Never mind, I'll stop my moaning and get down to business...

Clowns, as I've shown before not everyone is a fan, but these are so cute and was asked to make a fancy type fold for a 8 year old girl, who loves any type of clowns and circus stuff..


These papers were in my stash, had them for years, but, again, only 6x6
and I cannot make my cards smaller, they have to be big so I can see what I'm doing...( that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it..lol..) 


My little clown sweeties...


First sets of panels, cutting and adding where necessary..



One panel after another, I don't match each panel, not really unless I have 12 x12's
most of the small strips are scraps.. 


star die, it's a goodie, cuts all sizes at once and cuts through glitter card really well..


I then die cut balloons on water colour papers and a lion and monkey
and threw some paint on them, and I mean that, I slopped a bit on and let it do what is does..


The banners were cut next, once in coloured card and once in spotty paper
then pieced together on every other one..


So, everything ready then put together..


This little clown is a newbie I found and went quite well with the other two..


Little lion with lipstick on, ha ha ha, that wasn't supposed to happen..


The monkey on place..


This was my work sheet so I could remember where everything goes..
as you can see it got well used..

I am not a fan of clowns, although that these are cute. Love the monkey and the lion with his red lips. You made a gorgeous creation for that 8-year-old girl. She will be very pleased.

This is such a masterpiece! So many panels, and each one with special circus-themed die cuts, embellishments and papers! I love the pocket with the tickets! And the lion with lipstickšŸ˜‚! All the animals are just darling! The 8-year-old you made this for is going to love it! Thanks for sharing this lovely project at Creative Creases Challenge!

Wow Chrissy that took some dedication and work and the result is absolutely brilliant!! I know what you mean about those changes. I have to verify myself on my phone too and where my craft room is I am not guaranteed to pick up the internet so I'm walking about with my phone shouting at it lol. A curse but apparently is for security! Whose I don't know!!!

Fabulous cards Chrissy, lovely designs

That is very cute, I love the idea of the tickets in the middle too. I thought the lion was sticking out his tongue :) The banners and the balloons turned out great too!
Glad you like your new PC, Hubby said there maybe something in the settings where you can tell it to always stay signed in, I was thinking since google is part of it maybe something in google too, good luck!

I have to say that these are the cutest darn clowns I've ever seen! I love the wonderful colors and how detailed the images are with them! I absolutely love that you've made the folio with them too! Every page is brilliant and so fun! What a lovely gift! Hopefully, your computer will start remembering your passwords for you and you won't have to keep logging in! Best wishes!

Chrissy, I am not a fan of clowns, but I am a fan of yours! I was scared by one at a circus when I was little but yours are far from scary. Thanks for sharing with us at Creative Creases.

I think these clowns are such cutes ones, and I love the die cut monkey and lion too. Nicely coordinated papers, intentional or not, they look great together. A beautiful and fun design with lots of detail.
