Hello everyone. I’m delighted you’ve stopped in to have a look at my card for Craft Dee BowZ. This month, Craft Dee BowZ has partnered with The Graphics Fairy which is an amazing source of fabulous, free digital images. If you have never checked this site out, run, don’t walk! I have created a card using one of their ballerina images…she has wings!…
I printed the image at 40% of it’s original size and began by creating multiple mats around the image…newsprint, an overall floral and a soft blue card stock that was treated to a scalloped edge. A band of beautiful, wide lace runs up the left side of the card front and is layered…
with a band or organza ribbon and topped with a butterfly trim. Sometimes, more is wonderful! Using satin ribbon, there are cascades adorning the corner and a lovely, Prima flower with a triple bow of hand dyed seam binding tucked underneath for another touch of blue…
The opposite corner has a sentiment that is held with a memo pin and anchored with another triple bow (made with the Craft Dee BowZ tool, of course). It would be a simple matter to change the sentiment if needed…
I cut the face of the card’s base 1-1/2″ wider than the actual size so that I could punch a decorative edge that was adhered to a panel of white, to emphasize the punched design.
Happy crafting and I’ll be back soon~
Sending you blessings and ((hugs)),
