Was a bit fed up tonight, so made another version of the Christmas Baubles card. This time I used the paper piecing technique (think that's what it's called?).
I found some 6x6 pearlescent paper which I stamped the baubles on using a Stazon on ink pad (that was after I stamped them first with a versafine ink pad and found black smudge marks over the white card - oops!). Anyway, I then stamped them where I wanted them on the card and then placed the cut out ones on top, using a bit of pin flair to raise them slightly.
Instead of red gems, I used diamond glaze to accentuate (I like that word!) the berries.
I think this card is OK, but the freehand line around the edge looks a bit amateurish - must try harder next time.
Well till the next time - thanks for visiting, see you again soon x
I love it Trudi, and I think the hand drawn lines are brilliant it makes it look really arty, the baubles look really good too, I think I'm liking this one more than the other one actually xxx
