Hiya
This card
is one I actually made a couple of weeks ago – I think I'm a tad
childish at times cos when I get a new cd I just have to print out
and get a card made
And that's
what I did the day Miranda & Mo landed on my doormat
The cd is
by www.kraftyhandsonline.co.uk
Its a
really cute and full cd – all to do with the lovely Miranda and her
true friend little mouse Mo...
The art
work is great – and if you go for a design set it has a scene
background to use with the images – as well as sentiments and tags
– such a lot crammed onto 2 sheets of printing!
I'm sure
you will be seeing many more cards featuring Miranda & Mo.
So
materials for this card I used ….
Heat mat
to work on and protect your surface – I always use it...
A4 sheet
of cream card and a 6x6 piece
Printed
decoupage sheet and a printed backing sheet
Gold
patterned card
Fancy edge
cutter by Woodware with deckle edge blade
Sticky
pads
Eazi Score
Board & tool
Tonic 8”
guillotine
Scissors
Tweezers
Shaping
tool from www.dimensionstamps.com
Foam
shaping mat – stamping mat or even a mouse mat
To
make the card …
I cut out
the main image and the decoupage then decided to make up a twisted
easel card as I haven't done one for a while.
So my A4
cream card was scored to create A5 card blank then turned and scored
again on the A4 line – this was trimmed away to leave a 6x6 card
blank.
I opened
it up and using just the front page I scored a line from bottom left
corner to top right corner and creased
This was
the base of the twisted easel.
I trimmed
the base layer a tad so it would fit onto the 6x6 piece of card and
leave a very narrow all round border – this was then attached to
the easel making sure I only added double sided tape to the part of
the card that would be on the folded card front.
I printed
a contrasting backing paper and trimmed it down using the deckle edge
blade in the trimmer so it would fit the gold card leaving a border
The gold
panel was now stuck to the card base with double sided tape, then the
trimmed paper onto that.
I roughly
cut out a sentiment and as square tag and stuck these to scraps of
card to strengthen
They were
cut out then have thick sticky pads added and were placed so they
both became part of the easel stopper.
I cut out
a circular Happy Birthday which I added to the top left corner with
sticky pads
To finish
I used some glossy accents on the sticky red cherry jam and the
spoons that Miranda and Mo were holding
And that's
it all done!
Its the
kind of card that would suit almost all ages – don't you agree?
Had a new
cd arrive today so watch out for something from it in the very near
future!!
Its
another card in my “to use or sell” box
See you
again tomorrow friends!
