Decoupage revisited

Morning all. I have stepped back in time a bit with my card today.  My blogging buddy Janice recently showcased several DT cards featuring decoupage and it inspired me to drag out long forgotten sheets, get cutting and stage a revival!! . Actually that is a lie as they were die cut, but in my defence I did painstakingly file off all the little pips!!

Here is the result


I used a freebie embossing folder for the mat and I think the stamp came with it too. The papers were in my bits and pieces box and the daisy trim is also a mystery.

So, as promised Janice here is my decoupaged card and some challenges to go with it!!

    Great revival Sarah. Your card is beautiful. The orange colours are gorgeous. I love getting out my old crafting goodies and using them. You've inspired me to go and check out what decoupage sheets I've got. Michelle x

    Oh this is gorgeous Sarah! Love the colours and the image is adorable! I've just come across a whole load of my old decoupage cards sorting everything out for my son's summer fair at school this week... I appear to have a whole box full of them!

    sorry I'm still so intermittent with my comments right now. Hopefully I will soon be happy and pain free again though :-) x

    Oh how pretty Sarah! Love the peachy colours and it's a good while since I did any decoupage. I do love the 3-D result, and filing the pips off redy cut layers is an art in itself ; )

    Hugs, Di xx

    What a pretty card, Sarah. A beautiful summer's day, picnic in the meadows, lovely weather and good food ... that's what I see! Sorry I'm late visiting... it's been utter chaos at our home for the past month! Have a lovely week!
    hugs, Asha

    Hi Sarah,
    another really fab card.
    I love that super decoupage image.
    Isn't she just the cutest.
    Fab colours used, and wonderful papers.
    I also like the way you have embossed the oval die cut.
    Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.

    Ahhh decoupage, now that takes me back!! :) Like a lot of people it was my introduction to card making but I can’t cut for toffee so it always put me off. They hadn’t invented the die-cut stuff in my day!!!! Lol!
    Gorgeous, gorgeous card, Sarah! Love that colour scheme, so warm and summery! xx

    The little Sarah Kay image is just gorgeous. Love that you have embossed your scalloped mat, and the ribbon gives is a really country feel to match the style of the image. Great decoupage revival!

    Thanks for joining us for our 'Orange' challenge
