Card Making

 

In the process of creating the first number of cards I collected quite a few 3d images that were never put together. I also used card stock that was loose, not in any folder or packet. DW wants to use up as much of these materials as possible. The card below was created from these elements.


The cardstock background came from one of her/my cardstock books. If you enlarge the image you can see there are multiple layers of flowers and leaves. If I remember correctly there are four or five different elements to the flowers and leaves. To be honest I do not remember what they were. They were all in a pile and needed to be put in their proper place with foam buttons to give the 3d effect. 


The image was attached to the base using double sided tape. The two gold jewels were added to the lower two corners. Since there is no sentiment used in making this card to make it multi-purpose I used peel and stick trim in black to add visual interest. Sometimes this is the hardest part of making the card since everything has to be fitted together to look seamless. This was so-so on this card. The sentiment on the outside and inside can be added later as needed.

I didn't create many of these cards with only the outside done. For me the hard part is getting back into the creative groove and paying attention to the elements needed to make it special to the person/persons receiving the card.

May the good Lord bless and keep you safe. Remember to "Always Love The Details."
