May I give a very warm welcome to Sam Smithard, great to have you on board, if you have a blog of your own please post the URL so I can view too and place you on my list.
Now todays card was made up using one of those beautiful images from Paintbox Poppets and bits of craft I had left over from other cards, so it may be a bit mis match but hey, gotta try and use some of my waste!
I started with some Create and Craft Pearlescent Gold card and folded it half to make an A5 size base card. I put a spare strip of White Satin edged Ribbon (Bought from The Range) around the middle and added a strip of embossed (Sheena Douglass Little Bit Oriental-Sakura) Pink card (Crafters Companion Centura Pearl Pastel) that I had left over in the center as seen.
I printed the image from Crafters Companion Crisalis Classics and Paintbox Poppets Collections CD-Rom, cut it out and matted it onto another piece of Gold Pearlescent card, I attached this onto my card at an angle as seen.
With some scrap White card I stamped my sentiment from Creative Expressions Unmounted stamps-Classic Sentiments using Tim Holtz Distress Ink Black Soot and die cut with Spellbinders Nestabilities Decorative Elements-Splendid Circles, whilst still in the die I inked round the edge with Tim Holtz Distress Ink Victorian Velvet, I attached this onto my card with Foam Pads. With more White card I die cut with Spellbinders Venetian Motifs and attached these either side of the image.
Using another piece of Ribbon I made a bow and placed it in the bottom right corner, I coloured in a wooden flower with a Pink Spectrum Noir and attached this in the center of the bow. To finish the card off I added some Habico Self Adhesive Pearls in the corners.
Now this card was not planned I just used scrap waste so please let me know what you think.
Thank you for looking, Jacquie xxx
