Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Floriography CD

Hi Everybody,

I am often asked where I get the pretty papers that I use on my  cards and many of them are digital papers that I simply print off from my PC whenever I need them.

The papers on this card are from the  Floriography Twin CD  available from My Craft Studio.

It is a CD that I have had for a few years now so although it is still around it may not be for much longer.

There are some lovely backing papers on the disc as well as lots of other items ... such as envelopes, stationery boxes, matting and layering panels etc. etc.

The black and gold papers here are from the elements section and this has given me an A5 panel, the topper, some ribbon borders, and a sentiment.

The A5 will give you a complete backing sheet for a 5x7" card  and I have used the 160 GSM smooth white paper for Text and Graphics from Staples

I used gold card to may and layer and gold card for the sentiment which is a die from Spellbinders and is Phrase set Two 

It has several interesting and useful phrases on both of the sets and they are some that I will use time and time again.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

  9. Morning, Christina,
    Well, I think I actually have the CD you used for the backing paper of this fabulous card! I don't think I've really ever used it too much as I've always had useless colour printers lol. I now have a nice, new printer that prints really well and has separate colour cartridges, making it a lot more economic to use, so now I have no excuse not to have as many beautiful papers I could ever want. Thanks for sharing the card.
