Yet another week where I have to catch up Thursday's Card on Friday. Daisy and I had a lovely day together yesterday, I must say that she's getting very good at retail therapy! I got yet more bargains in the tail end of the sales too.For today's challenge the card had to look like a gift!
I cut out the shape and covered it with the striped paper. I stamped the flourishes with glue and sprinkled Glamour Dust all over them.
The tag is Sizzix and the sentiment is Stampin Up.
If you zoom in you may be able to see the twinkle!
Day 166 from 365 Cards requires a recipe which comprises a 4"x 7" card, with 5 flowers, 3 patterned papers, a wet embossed sentiment and glitter.
I'm hoping that 'wet embossed' means 'heat embossed' because that is what I did, I hope it's right. The papers are a mix of Canon and Shabby Princess, the flowers from my Poundland spray, the centre of the flowers are made from a Woodware punch and another small one and even with my new specs I can't make out the name on that, but the logo looks like an italic M. Anybody know this brand?
Both middles on each flower are glittered to the max!
I love your take on the "gift" card!
