Hello
again,
I have been
playing on and off with some of my new dies I bought from China, also
apparently found on various eBay sites, we had a lovely family friend we met
when we began following our family tree who suddenly announced that she and her
husband were moving interstate, within a week they had gone, she regularly
bought cards from me for her family and was always amazed at how different I
made them and how personalised I could make them. Given the incredibly short
notice we had a thank you card ready, but little else, so I decided to make her
a set of 10 cards to send down asap as a little gift. Which gave me the perfect
excuse to try out some of my new dies and make use of some of the paper scraps
holding a takeover bid of my desk, I found some co-ordinating paper and or
cardstock and used some card blanks, I have also cut some small gift cards up I
received as a teacher gift some years ago selecting patterns and the images as
feature pieces.
Here are
the first three of ten, I have plans of making a few masculine cards too.
On the second card I punched out three circles from the card and piled on some Diamond Glaze to create 'enamel' looking dots.
