Over on Bah! Humbug! this week the challenge is lovely in lilac, well I've just got the new Debbie Moore set of CD's and these two were on the masks disc. I only wanted to print them fairly small so told the printer I was using A5 paper. These two card are A6 made frm an A5 card cut in half so they open sideways.
The backing paper is from Season's Greetings from the Artylicious range and both the masks have had gold and diamond glitter added in fairly generous amounts and then had gems put on them to really bling them up.
I cannot take credit for the idea of using the masks as Christmas card that came from a friend of mine but she doesn't have a blog yet so I can pinch the idea for myself.
I like sideways opening cards - they stand up so well (especially if you've got a shiny sirface.) I like to make them A5 size from A3 card.
ReplyDeleteThese masks are gorgeous - I haven't seen them on the box - will have to see if I can catch a repeat.Brilliant as Christmas cards too.
