Don't
be so shocked!!
Ok so
I've been awol for such a long time now but its not been an easy few months for
me
I set
up a new card making class within a few weeks of moving to my lovely bungalow
in New Holland and together with my long standing card class over in Hull I was finding I just
ran out of hours in the day.
I
didn't stop making cards though - not only for my classes but card orders and
of course Christmas because no matter how hard I try I never seem to get in
front with "spares" for Christmas, mind you I had an order for 22
cards and another for 12.
The
card I am showing you today is the card I managed to get made for my lovely
hubby Pete...
It was
a sheet by Lisa Bagitello (sorry I cannot spell or remember her name) showing a
sexy female santa, now which man would be disappointed by a card like this?
I used
an 8x8 scallop edge card blank, I had a pad of foiled christmas papers so used
a lovely red , white and green paper to cover the card front, the corners were
rounded before I stuck the paper in place.
I cut
the main image which was 5x5 I thin,
then matted it to shiny black mirri card leaving a wide border, then 2nd mat to
red mirri card. The corners were all rounded prior to being stuck in place.
I
attached the matted section to the top right of the card then using red
glittered card I die cut some poinsettia flowers and a small black centre - the
flowers were made up using cosmic shimmer PVA and a bright red gem added to the
centres, the flowers were then stuck to the top left of the card.
A
cheeky message as well as a sentiment were added, to finish I added gems and
peel off gems.
A
lovely card which was quite a quick & easy make - hope you like it too!
Will
see you again soon with an update on what's being happening with me of late
Not too
long to Christmas now - its just mentioned on the news we have just 50 shopping
hours till Christmas
