Hello
Today's card
is lovely – but maybe its odd at the same time...Why? Well why
would a snowman be carrying a lighthouse???
Never mind
lets just get on!
The sheet is
from www.craftsuprint.com
but as usual I cant find the sheet to tell you who designed it or the
item number...
But here is
the card....
So
materials for this card I used ….
Heat mat to
work on and protect your surface – I always use it...
A4 dark blue
shimmer card
Decoupage
sheet
Blue wire
edged glittered organza ribbon
A foiled
christmas sentiment
Corner
chomper
Glossy
Accents
Double sided
tape
Sticky pads
Eazi Score
Board & tool
Tonic 8”
guillotine
Scissors
Tweezers
Shaping tool
from www.dimensionstamps.com
Foam shaping
mat – stamping mat or even a mouse mat
To
make the card ...
The dark
blue shimmer card was scored on the eazi score board and folded in
half to create the card blank
I used the
corner chomper to round off the 4 corners
Next I used
the length of beautiful blue wired organza ribbon – this was approx
2” wide and edged with silver thread – in the centre of the
ribbon is a lovely silver glittered pattern
I stuck the
ribbon down with tape at the rear of the card
Next I
trimmed the main design and then when I was happy with the size I
rounded the corners and put double sided tape around the edges at the
back, removed the backing tape and stuck the panel on the card
leaving enough room below the image for a sentiment to be added.
The
decoupage was cut out and added to the main image with small sticky
pads.
When all the
decoupage was added I trimmed a silver foil sentiment and after
adding double sided tape to the back I stuck it on my card at an
angle just below the image
To decorate
the card I sued the quickie glue pen and glamour dust – it went on
the trees, the grasses and randomly on the ground.
Glossy
accents were added to the nose and parts of the lighthouse.
That's
another lovely christmas all finished with insert and envelope, its
gone in the box with all the others – although I need lots for
family and friends I know people are going to ask me to make them a
selection of cards so I just keep on doing them – often repeating
my favourites so I get to keep some for our use!!
See you next
time....
