I'm Game ~ Decoupage Spring Diamond Card

Hello bloggers I hope the weekend is going well for you.  Today's card is one for the fanatical gamer in your life.

This card began as an A4 sheet of Centura pearl card stock that I cut and scored to make a spring diamond card.  Next I printed off a sheet of toppers, decoupage and backing paper using Crafter's Companion 'hobbies' CD-ROM.  I fussy cut out the elements and set about layering up the hexagonal decoupage.  Next I used the backing sheet to cover the base, sides and top of the card.  The spring part of the card was then adhered into position using super sticky tape.  Next I added the topper to the top part of the card.  Finally I added two embellishments to the card base to finish it off.

Mothers Are Like ~ Spring Diamond Card

Hello bloggers I hope you are all well and  are gearing up for the weekend.  Today I have another spring diamond card for you but this time the theme is Mother's Day.

This card began as an A4 sheet of Centura pearl card stock that I cut and scored to make a spring diamond card.  Next using some button patterned paper I covered the base of the card.  I then cut a square for the top of the card and adhered that in place.  Next I covered the two triangles at the side of the card with the same paper.  The spring of the card was then secured to the base using super sticky tape.  Next I type up my verse topper on the computer and printed it onto some cream pearlescent linen paper.  Once printed out it was die cut using Spellbinders 'labels B' die set.  I then inked the edges with walnut stain distress ink.  The topper was adhered to the top of the card.  Finally to finish off I adhered to buttons to the top and bottom of the topper.

Happy Birthday ~ Fairy Spring Card

Hello bloggers I hope you had a good day yesterday.  For today's card I have gone for a spring or diamond card with a fairy topper.

This card began as an A4 sheet of Centura pearl card stock that I cut and scored to make a spring  or diamond card.  Next I cut a rectangle of yellow card stock for the bottom of the card and a square for the top.  These were then adhered into place.  Using some yellow floral paper I cut another rectangle and a square slightly smaller than the yellow ones to make mats for the top and bottom of the card.  Once adhered into place the bottom of the card was secured with super sticky tape to keep it in place.  Next using some embossed fairy stickers I added a flower and butterfly embellishment to the bottom of the card.   I then added an embossed fairy topper to the top of the card.  'Happy Birthday' peels offs were added either side of the topper and finally to finish off the card I added a parcel peel off the the top point of the card top.
