Work, rest and play


I decided today I was going to make some very simple cards with papers I got free from magazines. I stared off with my images by colouring to tone in with the colours of the papers. I found some contrasting card in my stock and simply did some matting and layering. I used a couple of dies to vary the layouts a little and made some faux shapes by drawing round the shape I used to cut out. I finished off the cards with some twine and card candi.
Thank you for looking x
