I hope you are having a good week. Not long and it will be the weekend and not long after that it will be the end of term - not that I'm counting.
As I have said before there are a few people leaving work at the end of term. I decided to make a card for the male teacher who I have been working with this term. I bought the August issue of Making Cards Magazine and I decided to use one of the images that came with the magazine.
This is just a 6" x 6" card made from a single sheet of A4 brown centura pearl card. The doggy papers I have had in my stash for a while waiting for a good use and this was it.
I cut the image out with one of my Matting and Basics Spellbinder dies. This meant that it was easy to cut mats for the image. There was a space to the side and that is where I decided to put the sentiment cut with another Spellbinder die. I did ink round the image while it was still in the die. This was the first time I had used a brush to apply the ink and I loved the soft effect.
I finished off the corners of the card with some dots of Antique Green CS PVA glue.
I will give the chap a bottle of wine to go with this card he has been a pleasure to work with.
I hope the end of the week is kind to you.
Happy Crafting
Hugs Jackie
