Hello my friends, It`s very damp and chilly here so I hope it is better for you wherever you are ;o). While I was cleaning my craftroom last week I came across a box with a load of Making Cards magazines which I had completely forgotten about, I just had to investigate whether I wanted to keep them, well I could not believe that I had not used them earlier and a few I could not even remember looking at DOH. When I came across these craft papers and vellums I just had to use them. The magazine was dated 2008, and the idea for the card came from another MC Mag.
Recipe
6in square pink card
VersaMagic Pink Petunia Ink
VersaMagic Pixie Dust Ink
Card Candy
Hero Art Gemstones
Making Card Mag Freebies
I inked the edges of the bitterfly paper with pink petunia, folded the flower paper to create a frame inked with pixie dust tothe bits that were showing white added card candy, gems, and sentiment. Cit the butterfly out 3 times the top one is vellum and hey presto.
If anyone would like the measurements I will add them.
I would like to enter this into
