Simple Arch Card

 

I like shaped cads. I think I forget to use them now and again. this is a simple arch shaped card I made with a window. The front I a panel from Hunky Dory Crafts (gotta love them - Im so addicted!)

Items used:

• Gold Tiny Dazzles
• Lacy ribbon
• Front Panel (Hunky Dory -carried by Hot off the Press)
• Small postcard (also Hunky Dory)
• Foiled butterfly also by HD)
• Purple shimmer card stock for card base

The size of my card is about 5 1/8 by about 7 inches.

To make my center window, I lined up my inside insert on the inside of my card base, traced the rectangle and then cut it out.  The inside is also matted with gold and purple.

Here's the bow.

Have a great week

French Flourish Card

Hi everyone! 

 

I hope you all had a wonderful and scary Halloween!

 

Today's card is using the negative space from a die cut and some pattered paper.

I was die cutting some flourishes out of gold glossy and ha these leftovers. They looked so pretty I couldn't throw them away - so they went to my special stash.  I finally pulled one out and decided it was time to either use it or throw it away (I was cleaning...)

Items used:

• Frantic Stamper Precision Die - Eiffel Tower
• Couture Creations Flourish Die (I used the negative space from it)
• Gold Glossy
• purple fleur de lis patterned paper (misc - got it from Hobby Lobby)
• Viva Décor Pearl Pen in Pink

I like the pearl pens abut don't use hem often enough.  They are great for making different sized "pearls". 

 

 

Thanks for stopping by!
