Today I am sharing two more cards. This was the second card created in this run. The lettering appears a bit tilted due to the card being slightly open.
This card is dimensional card. The background is a blue cardstock stamped with a dear and colored black with Copics. The tree trunks were fussy cut with an exacto knife. They were then attached to the background base with dimensional foam dots to give the 3d effect. The tree tops were also cut with an exacto knife and attached to the top of the tree line with the dimensional dots. The base of the card front was a problem because details were showing that should have been hidden. A second strip of the light green cardstock was cut and glued to the base and that was glued to the base to form the forest floor. The Chinses proverb was something left over from one of Jill's projects. The white die-cut pieces Were used to bracket the proverb.
The sentiment on the inside is from a sheet of clear acrylic with sentiments from an unknown source and glued inside the card.
The tag on the back.
This was not the best of the cards but I am sharing it anyway. It presented and myriad of problems to solve. I hope you like what was done.
Until next week, may the good Lord bless and keep you safe. Remember to "Always Love The Details."
The deer card with the trees raised on foam dots is lovely, it gives the forest a real depth. I also like that you sign the back of each card so people know you made it. The light green strip for the forest floor is a clever fix too.
ReplyDeleteSeeing all the steps it takes to create a card, Jim, I truly understand how and why you have to "love the details." Absolutely necessary! Thanks so much for sharing this creation with us.
ReplyDeleteBom dia, Jim
ReplyDeleteLindos cartões! Você é muito talentoso. Que Deus te abençoe sempre. Um forte abraço.
Thank you Lucinalva. The cutting was very tedious. The card was not an easy one.
DeleteI actually like the forest card, especially the little trees and how you’ve raised them to give the scene more depth. You must have put quite a bit of work into cutting out all those pieces!
ReplyDeleteTwo wonderful cards Jim, but the forest/stag dimensional card is stunning. Well done on your problem solving
