Hello
I'm later
than usual as I wanted to watch the closing ceremony of the 2012
Paralympics – I saw most of it but like most evenings my medication
took over and I spent my night dozing on and off
But what I
saw f it was pretty good – I am a big fan of steampunk for card
making and it was used in very cleverly in the ceremony
And so to my
card – its another Christmas card to add to the collection...
I know it
came from craftsuprint last year and I have made this card up several
times – both last year and again this year
It is in a
set of a similar design – as in the picture in the centre changes
but the design around the outside is much the same.
So as this
sheet was primarily blue I used a white scallop edged card and
coloured the outer edges with a mid blue pan pastel
The main
image was then positioned centrally using double sided tape
The
decoupage was then added with small sticky pads – and the top most
pieces were shaped before they were added
To decorate
the card I used a quickie glue pen and glamour dust on the wintery
scene
The red
Stickles were dabbed in the centre of the white poinsettias around
the outer edges
Lastly I
added glossy accents to the centre of the ribbon bow
A lovely
card that will be admired by young and old – and I am pretty
certain I will be making this and the others in the set for Christmas
2013
I will see
you all tomorrow with another card and will have to get a few more
cards made in between sorting out what I need for my annual trip to
the craft retreat on Friday,..
Bye
