Non Traditional Christmas Card

Hi Everybody,

Here is the other card with handmade flowers attached and these are made from Foamiran with large stamens in the centre.

They are so much better in the hand and this one is my favourite. I have also added some silver twine to this card and two lace flowers. on either side of the foamiran ones.

The leaves are a mixture of foamiran, card and lace and they are added to an embossed background. 

I have added glue and glitter to the petals. Once again I have added the sentiment verse to the inside and the orientation of this card means it will stand on its own no problem at all.

I like coloured cards for Christmas, just to be different from the normal red and green. 

What's your choice ??

More tomorrow ... 

Hugs xx

Making Flowers

Hi Everybody,  

Over the weekend I have ben making some flowers with paper, card and foamiran. Just to see what I come up with and to practice making them for my cards.

This Poinsettia is created from card and I have used a little frame behind it for  shabby chic look. There is also some gold twine and tiny little snowballs that I got from AnnaMarie Designs a long time ago. 

I have added the Christmas Greeting to the inside of this card for a change and I have had to line the inside also to counter balance the front and stop it falling over.

This is one of the reasons I prefer to have my fold at the top of the card as that prevents it from constantly falling flat.

I have another tone to add tomorrow and that is also a Christmas card but not in traditional colours. I hope you like them both but I must admit to liking tomorrows card the best.

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
