Hello
friends
I
am getting excited now as my twin daughters Nicky & Vicky are due
back from their holidays tomorrow – I cant wait to see my grandson
Layton – I have missed them all so much but especially him...I was
over the moon today when I got back for the shops to find a postcard
from him saying I love you lots love Layton and robot xxx and he
wrote it himself too – will treasure it as its the 1st
postcard he has sent and it was to me!!!
I
have enjoyed a play today – I finally used an IndigoBlu stamp its
all matted and layered but I didn't get round to actually making it
into a card – something for another day I suppose...
My
card for today is made using the My Craft Studio cd – but I cant
recall which one...what am I like eh? Only part of the info...sorry!!
To
make the card I used the complete card section on the cd – I
believe its called the Elements section
It
all printed onto one sheet which is great for a quick card that still
gives you room to design – that is the downside with crafts you
print sheets – they are all laid out so its just cut and stick and
then when you embellish that the only part you can really claim to
have done yourself...
I
started by scoring and folding a black sheet of card to create my A5
card blank – I have used it landscape – or tent fold – that is
fold along the top.
The
backing paper from the sheet was cut and matted onto a piece of
bright purple card leaving an all round border.
This
was then glued to the card black using double sided tape.
A
piece of black card was cut and one edge was then punched using my
Martha Stewart Cherish border.
To
that I attached a length of the purple card leaving a border to the
left and the punched border at the right free
Then
I used a bought gem embellishment which really could have been made
to fit the panel.
I
cut out the topper and matted onto black then purple card again
leaving the borders all round
This
was stuck to the card with sticky pads then a sentiment added inside
the topper again on sticky pads.
To
finish I decorated using patterned card candy in the corners of the
topper and used different Cosmic Shimmer PVA coloured glue to
highlight the sentiment and the bag
A
great quick and easy card for a lady of any age!!
Catch
up again tomorrow folks
