A card a day - day 20

O.K. this photo really doesn't do this card justice but i love this card anyway! i have a lot of larger patterned papers and sometimes it is hard to get them on to a card and look ok so with this card i cut out the pattern with my Fiskars fingertip knife and layered it onto the card with 3D foam dots. the card has a real 3D feel to it but it is hard to see in the photo.

A card a day - day 18

The card i have created today is a good way to show you how great Fiskars threading water punch really is! I just love it! I think out of all my border punches i always come back to this punch.
I have coloured in a hero arts stamp with pencils and gamsol to give the muted effect you cannot really get from copics. I quite like this effect and is really simple to do. Then i have layered several colours of punched borders together on the card.

A card a day - day 17

With today's card i have stamped and coloured with pencils to give a more pastel look on my card. I have also used Cuttlebug to emboss the card and used my Fiskars fingertip knife to cut out the stamped image to give a 3D effect. The stamp is Stampin up from a few years ago i  think it is retired now.

A card a day - day 12

Another day another card.....
todays card i thought i might make a male card.
to create this card i used patterned papers(i cannot remember what brand!) lawn fawn stamp from critters in the burbs and my upper crest border punch to make the tag. It was very easy to make the little tag. i punched the upper crest on some card and then flipped over the card and punched the other side. as long as the 2 border are lined up you can trim them to make this little tag for sentiments. Easy huh!
