For your special day

My first blog entry is a card i sent to Simple cards and Paper craft magazine, which was picked to feature in the Readers Gallery section, this card was made with the free floral die on the front of the previous magazine.

Firstly to make the card I started with a 6x6" scallop card blank.I matted the card front with 2 pieces of coordinating paper, before attaching it to my card i machine stitched around the edge then adhered it to my card blank, then die-cut a border and cut a banner shape out of paper. I machine stitched around it and Stamped a sentiment on to it, then 3D Glued them on to my card. I Cut flowers and leaves from the free floral die and arranged them on to my card, then 3D glued them on to my card. Finally i decorated the centres with buttons and a paperclip on the banner. I really enjoyed making this card and this inspired me to start this blog.

Thank you for viewing this page and Happy Crafting.

Love Sharon x:-)

  1. Such a beautiful card. I love the finishing touch- a white paper clip, it finishes it perfectly, I'd never thought of that. Nice clear and precise instructions too, thanks Sharon. I am amazed by the variety of styles and techniques you use in creating your cards. Plus of course the patience, skill and creativity.
