Thank you for all the lovely comments on my samples yesterday. I'm so pleased you liked them. As promised, I'm back to show you some of the card samples I have made for my demo today.
This first one uses elements from the beautiful Eau de Nil Capsule Collection. I started with a pink pearlescent paper new to the Papermania range. Then I layered a paper, one of the lace paper doilies and a notelet. I wrapped ribbon around the notelet and added a matching bow. I finished with buttons in the corners.
This card is made using the elegant Midnight Blush Capsule Collection. I layered one of the papers followed by half of a Lace Paper doily, a strip of Jumbo Crochet Trim and a couple of Big Bloomers. I added a couple of punched flowers and a button to the centre. The card was finished with a couple of buttons and a small bow.
I used an X-cut Scalloped Circle die to make this card shape and inked the edges. I then added a circle notelet and topped it with a pinwheel. I tucked in a couple of folds of ribbon and finished with a bow.
The Heritage Press collection is perfect for making elegant male cards and has papers, decoupage and embellishments as well as embossing folders and dies. On this card I've used decoupage, a paper, a sentiment, buttons and dies. Don't you just love the spectacles?
This card is so simple to make. I have used the Tartan embossing folder, a paper, some buttons and a decoupaged sentiment.
There is no main image on this card. I have used a variety of sentiments by pegging them to a thread and a larger sentiment that I've matted onto Papermania card. The background is a double layer of a Heritage Press paper matted onto card. I finished off with more mini pegs to which I added some buttons.
I hope I've inspired you to try out some of the fabulous new collections. You should be able to find them at your local Docrafts stockist. Remember, if you are in the Carmarthen area today please stop by The Range for my demo. I'd love to see you there.
Ooh...someone's been very busy. Great cards and loving the colours. Those little pegs are just so cool. Hope the demo goes well and that loads of people drop by to see you.
