I decided to take a stamp set which I have barely used, Charming, and give it a whirl and,as promised, I've used another long and thin card base.
I don't have Soft Sky so I took the palest blue and stamped the ink pad down on some white card 5 times. I then stamped the image in Basic Grey 4 times and once in Cherry Cobbler. I mounted these 5 panels onto to Basic Grey CS and then again onto Cherry Cobbler card. Before sticking this down I stamped the text from the stamp set down the left side and finally I heat embossed the Happy Birthday in silver. I could easily have made this an anniversary card - I should have and then I could have sent it to Patricia and her husband!
Hope you'll join in with our challenge this week, do have a look at the cards from the other DT girls. Happy Crafting!
Very elegant! I like this long, thin card and those elegant flourish images! Super!
ReplyDeleteI tend to get stuck in the rut of making A2 sized cards (since the organization I donate many of them to prefers that size) so long, narrow cards like yours always catch my eye. I like how the background text visually balances out the sentiment. The flourishes are very pretty, too!
ReplyDeleteAn anniversary card from England would have been very unexpected! :) Thank you for the sweet thoughts. I don't mind that you made a birthday card for the challenge. Make something you know you'll use.
