Sophisticated...a card

Hi everyone,

Items used:
  • Downton Abbey Line from Crafters Companion (patterned paper, frame, bow and picture)
  • copper adorable scorable from Hunkydory
  • embossing folder (Crafters Companion - a Taste of India line)
  • Ribbon - May Arts
  • Pearls
I received an email from May Arts inviting me to ask for a sampler, so I did. This is one of the ribbons they sent me.  I'm already a fan of May Arts - I love their ribbons.  This is actually one ribbon with the velvet brown already fused to the lace.



Tis is a closer look at the frame.  Its mde of wood and in this case is covered with paper on one side.



 Thanks for stopping by,
Lis

Pink Believe in Yourself Card

Hi everyone!

It's funny how I start with one plan to make a card and end up making something different. Does that ever happen to you?  I had wanted to make an Easter card (that's how long it's been that this card has been under construction). 


Items used:
  • White shimmer paper (already came embossed with wavy lines)
  • Anna Griffin patterned paper, sentiment & die cut
  • Pink shimmer adorable scorable card (Hunkydory)
  • Sizzix embossing folder
  • Lime green glitter tape
    • after I added the glitter tape, it was very bright so I added the pearl string over top of it.  It still let the green show through, just not quite so much!
  • pearl ribbon
  • iridescent sequins
I like using the sequins, they give the card a little sparkle and interest.




Close up!


Thanks for stopping by!
