Hi
Well I
feel much better today – still not right but certainly on the right
road – mind you I was in bed a little after 10pm last night and it
was around 10.45 when I got up so the sleep probably helped a lot!
I have
printed off loads of sheets from new cds as I like to try make at
least one card from each and that how today's card came about.
I got the
new cds from Digicrafts and made my card from the Give Him Another
Squeezee cd – this cd is all male related and I love majority of
the images. Now I am not a fan of these squeezee cards but the makers
have started to add a folder called EXTRAs and in that folder you
will find decoupage!
Do my card
used one of the decoupage sheets – it was a card to a page really
as it didn't need any backing
So
materials for this card I used ….
Heat mat
to work on and protect your surface – I always use it...
A4 dark
green card
The
printed main sheet
A5 piece
of silver mirri card
Glossy
accents
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 …
To start I
folded the dark green card to make my A5 card.
I trimmed
the A5 mirri card using a fancy edge cutter on all four sides
This was
stuck to the main card base leaving the narrow border.
I cut out
the base image then nipped the corner with a punch
The panel
was then stuck to the card front.
I cut out
the decoupage – with this cd you can do close to the edge decoupage
which is my preferred way – or you can cut wide which offers easy
option and still blends in well.
Once the
few pieces were in place it was left to add the sentiment which was
in my bit box – the sentiment was on white card so I quickly ran a
distress tool with a mowed lawn around the edges – added large
stick pads and shaped the centre
Glossy
accents were used on the red areas – mainly his shirt and socks or
where I felt the image was too flat
Card
finished – and I ask you again- don't you agree this is a great
rugby themed card – and it was really click print – cut and go!
I cannot
rate this cd highly enough....I know sometimes we are in a rush for a
last minute card – well next time be sure to look for this cd –
Digicrafts Give Him Another Squeezee
The cd has
golf, rugby, football,golf, bowls, motorbikes, garden scene and so
much more
Its in the
“use or sell” box...like 98% of al the cards are
Thanks for
dropping by
See you
again tomorrow friends!
