A Piece of Paradise

Today I'd like to share a little card made using an Accordion die from Elizabeth Crafts. I'm really enjoying going back to my older Graphic 45 scraps and seeing what I can create - this card used images and papers from Tropical Travelogue.

I tried to create a vibrant colour scheme and layout, alternating the papers and fussy cutting the images to add to the panels.


I finished the card with diecut embellishments in the corners and black gems. I have left the back panels blank to allow me to write a message and stamp a sentiment.

Hope you like it. I'd like to enter it into the following challenges:

Curtain Call Accordion

Hi All!
Back with a card made with one of the Elizabeth Crafts dies - a little accordion card using some of my last precious scraps of Graphic 45 'Curtain Call' papers!

I made this one into a Charlie Chaplain / film theme which would be perfect for a man's card. The base was created with black card and the borders cut with the Star Frame Edges.

The back borders were cut in cream card, inked with Distress ink, whilst the interior borders were cut from gold mirror card. Some of the little star gold star off cuts I popped back into the cream borders on the back.

I then fussy cut images from the papers to create the two little scenes, added Liquid Pearls, and put two sentiment panels on the back, decorated with stamps from the papers, to allow you to write a message.


Anyway, hope you like this card. I've made a little video just to show you the card:

Happy Valentine's Day

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!
Here is a little card I made using a pop up die and the 'Roses for You' collection from Hunkydory which came free with the last magazine.

I also used some gold coloured Adorable Scorable for the reverse side and added some little punched hearts from gold mirri card. The back panels were cut with a Do crafts die.




Hope you like it!
