City Crafter Challenge 281

Hello and good morning!
Can you believe this is the last challenge of September at City Crafter? Here we are already heading to October and the weather here has been so nice I'm still hanging on to the last of summer!

This week we have the talented Marina hosting our challenge with the theme 
Geek Chic

Collage by Marina

The challenge is to create a card or project using the theme sci fi, science, technology or be inspired by the collage

I have to say that this did give me a bit of a headache, but hey it's a challenge right? I tried one idea first and wasn't keen on that so in the end this is what I came up with


Does it look like a cell phone? Well that's what it's supposed to be with a photo of Autumn colours


The photo was from my printshop program and I made the phone on my silhouette


Our Guest Designer this week is Padoriaa winner of challenge 273, She creates the most lovely shabby chic projects - click the link to be taken to her blog and see for yourself her lovely cards
As always we are offering a GD spot to our winner so come along and join us ... I'm dying to see what you clever crafters come up with.

I'm off to see what the rest of our team have to inspire you this week at City Crafter - Care to join me?

Have a beautiful day my friends

Haha... me too, I was having as much problem with this but agreed with you, I love to be challenged, that makes us get out of our comfort zone and try something we never think we could ever do. I love the result of yours!

Maria said...

Oh, a fabulous card that is techy fun, Ros! Love the phone with the gorgeous fall photo...just lovely!

Mac Mable said...

Yep, scratching my head too on this one! You've nailed the theme Ros, very clever and very creative using your cutting machine for the phone. Beautiful colours and yes I am always up for the 'challenge' too x

Stella said...

You did a terrific job and I immediately recognised the cell phone. And your autumn photo is breathtaking.You are always able to create a design with interesting and beautiful details. I already want to subcribe for a cardmaking class next spring. Count me in for a few days :)
Sending a big hug!

I knew immediately it was a cell phone! Great card, Ros!

Samra said...

Gorgeous screen saver on your cell phone Ros! Love it!

Davi said...

FAB job Ros!! This is a Challenge and you did rise to the occasion, very cool phone image you created!

Sylvia said...

Wow, such a fun card, Ros! Hope you have a wonderful Wednesday!

Barbara said...

It's definitely a phone - I knew before you mentioned it! That would have been a challenge for me as well... though it seems as if creating ANYTHING is a challenge these days. One post in September speaks volumes. Anyhow, great card!

Marina said...

It looks exactly like a phone and is a really creative and pretty take on the challenge.

Robyn Oliver said...

Cool card Ros, yes it looks like a cell phone - great interpretation of the pic.

Diane said...

Now this is what I call a challenge!! But you mastered it perfectly..yep I new it was a cell right off...teehee...and the picture on it is much better then my real cell!

Mrs Beez said...

What a clever idea and I love how you have incorporated the 'phone into your design.

Tracy said...

Well I'd say you were pretty clever with your cell phone. Sometimes I think they qualify for sci-fi. LOL
