A card I made for a friend's birthday after watching a video on the Nifty Noodles Crafting Facebook page HERE.
The patterned paper is from a paper pad from The Range. The card it kept closed with a tiny spider magnet in the bottom right hand corner, which I put under the patterned paper so it wouldn't show. The sentiment is a stamp from the Stampin' Up 'Painted Glass' set, stamped in navy blue, layered on a teal mat and raised up on foam pads. I made a tag with two of the dies from the Poppystamps 'Pinpoint Main Street Tags' set and added a Lisa Horton's die cut flower and leaf to the front. The back of the tag was left plain to write the message.
The right hand flap is attached to the back along the bottom edge so that it creates a pocket for the tag.

A second card today, a Get Well card made a while ago which I forgot to post on my blog.

I am having issues with Blogger at the moment. Don’t know why. Anyway both of your cards are lovely. Like the papers in the first card and wish
ReplyDeleteI had thought of your idea in the second card when I used an embossed card in one of my earlier posts. Hugs Mrs A.
Probably my favourite colour combo on that first one Liz and I love the design! How clever of you to emboss and cut in another colour on the second one! It's a lovely embossing folder! Gosh you've been busy! Hugs, Kate
ReplyDeleteYour papers and layout are beautiful Liz,love the fold for the tag. The fussy cut flower in the get well card is gorgeous.

Just light covering in the grass verges and some on the the roofs left, but that all. Went out for a walk in the snow for about half and hour this afternoon to deliver a letter. It was SO cold! xx
DeleteTwo beautiful cards, Liz! Love the idea of the pink flower on top! Very creative!
ReplyDeleteThe envelope card is very pretty, great design! Love the delicate feel of the second one, great idea cut a piece of embossing to make the flower!!

I love the papers you have used on the first Liz and such a great shape with the envelope fold and the tag with a pretty added flower in the pocket, to right a message on, and then the beautiful 3D Peony EF with a spotlight effect by overlaying one of the flowers in pink looks fabulous. x

Love the look of this one and what a clever way to hold a tag, the papers and colours are spot on. Everytime I see one of your card I think I must have a go at doing different shapes. Sadly I am still waiting to get round to it, but I thank you for the inspiration anyway xx

What a lovely card, super colours and I love the clever idea of the magnet hidden under the paper. I also love the second card and how you have over layered the peony with one in pink. I adore this embossing folder. xx
ReplyDeleteBoth are beautiful cards, but I really like the bold colors and use of the tag in the first one. Now, I need to google a spider magnet to see what it is and when it can arrive here. My Amazon delivery person thanks you! Thanks for joining us at Make My Monday challenge! Hope to see you in the gallery again, soon. Sue - DT
