Hi
Today
I am sharing a card I made from a cd by Creative Crafting which was
previously known as Cupcake Crafting.
Its
called At the bottom of the garden
Have
to say the artwork is lovely and as you can imagine the designs are
mostly fairy based.
So
when you select the design you get lots of options like toppers,
decoupage, digi stamps etc or as I chose this time a plate design
I
simply printed off the 2 sheets and stuck one sheet to white card
using Crafters Companion Stick & Stay then started cutting it all
out
When
I came to the back plate I realised my error – it had printed with
ADD YOUR OWN TEXT HERE
Had
I looked it this properly before printing out and before sticking it
to card and before cutting out all the small bits I could have
removed that text and either added something that would be printed on
or just print the blank and stamps something
So
I had to improvise – I traced the star shape and transferred the
shape to white card, cut it out, stamped All Girls Are Princesses and
a crown using stamps by Debbi Moore, then stuck the panel over the
original – sorted!!!
All
the decoupage was lightly shaped and added to the design.
The
stand was perfect – I will use that in future for my bookatrix type
cards – it doesn't matter that it is patterned because I can cover
it up or just draw round it onto my chosen card.
This
is such an easy card to make – only downside I can see is the
excessive amount of flowers and leaves – I left 6 flowers and 4
leaves on the sheet as I already had more than I had space for.
And
on a positive side it folds flat for posting – I used very thin
sticky pads so if this was put into an A5 sized envelope it would go
on a normal stamp!
Would
love to know what you think to the card!!!
For
the to use or to sell box
See
you next time
