Hello
again
This
is a card for the CD Sunday Challenge Blog
The
theme this week was Dreams and Dragons so I made this card
I
used Jems Designs Dragons Realm as I loved the idea of the card
looking like a very aged book.
So
make this I printed off the book front, back and insert for dragon
number 4, but I decided to make this a small card so its just A6 in
size
I
cut out the front and back then used my Silent Setter to make holes
and also add the eyelets to the left side
I
used brown and a cream fibre as I love the messy fluffy look
The
insert was a problem as it was the traditional style so I folded in
half, stuck inside the book and trimmed so it was the same as my book
– when it was opened it had worked out quite well
I
decided to add a simple stamped sentiment and the one I used fitted
perfectly – stupidly – and lazily I must add – I stuck the
clear stamp onto the back of a block that already had a stamp on so I
inked it up then stamped where I believed was the centre – WRONG!!!
Lesson
learnt – don't be lazy next time, get another block or remove the
existing stamp for a few minutes!!!
There
wasn't much I could do to embellish this card so I added thick pva
then glitter to what was the tape holding the dragon photo
Again
had I not been so lazy I should have got out all my brads as I feel
sure I have a dragon shaped one as well as a hatching egg
Another
lesson learnt on the perils of being lazy!!
So
that's my DRAGON card
Hope
you like it
Till
the next card....
