Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Using scraps


 Hi Everybody,

This little A6 card has been created using some handmade paper design and a small circle die.

I stamped, inked, and splattered the paper with gold then cut it into circles using several of the small dies to give me different sizes.

I drew a double black wavy line, with a fine liner pen, around each of the circles to make them stand out a little more.

They have then been added to another slightly smaller panel that has gold gilding wax around the edges, and has also been embossed in a folder for more texture.

I raised the circles up with foam pads  on the panel and then added it to my base card.

Quick easy and oh so simple and yet uses up your scraps and is a lovely card for any occasion.

The sentiment is one I have had in my stash for a while and it came in very handy for this card. 

Bye for now ...

Hugs xx

  1. Good Morning Christina and all that visit today. What a lovely idea. You have my mind working already. I am thinking same shapes slightly different sizes ... But all different shades of the same colour ... Blues... Pinks ... Lilacs .... And edged with silver or gold or glitter for a bit of bling. Great idea Christina and another one to try out. Thankyou. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone. Please stay safe and well 🙏
    Kind regards Ann Toppcards in Leeds.
