Evening all
I had a poor
nights sleep so rather than head for the TV I decided to start making
up some cards from the many many decoupage toppers I have ready
I print out
sheets – cut them out – make them up into a topper than drop into
a box – there must be 50+ just waiting for a card to be done.
Well this is
a card I made up while at Malham last weekend
It was a
lovely kit from one of my favourite sellers Lynzeys Place
http://www.lynzeysplace.com/index.php?p=1_84_Easel-Christmas-page-2
that will take you direct to the page with the kit on
This kit is
called Easel Christmas Set 66
The kits
from this site are great value – its 50p for up to 3 sheets and
then 4 or more sheets is 75p... I have just bought a sheet that has
around 8 sheets to it...
So I printed
out the kit which was the easel, the main image, the stopper,
decoupage & sentiment and 2 pieces for the envelope.
I roughly
cut out the easel and main image and then sprayed the backs woth
Crafters Companion Stick & Stay then stuck these to white card
stock
The pieces
then were all carefully cut out, the base was scored in half then the
top piece in half again
The base
image was then attached to the folded front – I added the decoupage
at this point using very thin sticky pads.
For my
stopper I used a piece of printed self adhesive Christmas ribbon then
popped a sentiment in the centre – this was built up using thick
sticky pads
To decorate
the card I used small clear AB flat backed gems when printed snow was
all around the design
The top of
the post box was covered with a generous amount of PVA glue as was
the girls hat and coat fur trim – then I covered with iridescent
glitter
Glossy
Accents was added to her little helper and a letter.
The envelope
was easy to make up – both sheets were cut out and then folded on
the lines shown – double sided tape was then placed over these and
both parts pressed together
Its a lovely
card – more so because it comes with the matching envelope.

this tomorrow friends
