NEW YER CARD FOR PODIETRIST

I MADE THIS CARD FOR MY PODITRIST FOR HER NEW YEAR, DECIDED TO MAKE NEW YEAR ONE AS I DIDNT SEE HER FOR XMAS. I USED HEAVY WIGHT CARD WHICH I SHADDOWED USIN GLIMMER CHALKS, THEN APPLIED LAYERS OF RECENTLY ACQUIRED PAPERS FROM QVC, I USED A BORDER PUNCH TO DECORATE EDGES, I THEN ATTACHED A DECOUPAGED FAIRY TO THE CARD, AND MATTED AND LAYERED THE MESSAGE, APPLYING WITH 3D FOAM. FINISHED OFF WITH PEEL OFF CORNERS

Xmas Village scene ATC

I wanted to include this little ATC in my first blog pages, this village scene i decoupaged i then used glow in the dark gel to highlight the windows and street lights. so that when viewed in the dark it would glow. i reacently made a christmas card using the same tecnique using the gel in the lamp post of the card. but this ATC was the first time i had thought about using the glow in the dark gel. of all my xmas ATCs this one was the most asked for.

Little birdie New Year Card

This is the little birdies New Year Card i made for my brother. i felt by using the birds rather than the obligatory christmas scene i wanted to create something which symbolised new beginnings. ie new growth. i used the corner punch to decorate edge of pearlised card which i then embossed with background design. i chalked the card using glimmer chalks. applied peel off corners and New Year Wording. i used the same pearlised card and attached the name which i then layered with mirri card and attached using 3d foam. to give a raised affect. i enjoyed making this wee card. hope my brother likes it.

inside New Year card

This is the inside of the little birdie New Year card i made for one of my brothers. i used the Xcut corner punch, removing the side bars to enable me to punch around the paper. i overlapped the paper slightly at each end as the paper was two toned, being darker blue on the reverse. I never ever used corner punches before, that is before i knew you could remove those little side bars. love em! love em, love em.
