Not tree, THREE. Three owl themed cards. I've got a new CD, the first new craft CD I've had for ages. Well, it wasn't strictly new, just new-to-me; I'm in a craft swapping round robin and this was one of the lovely goodies that came to me recently. The CD is Debbi Moore's Shabby Chic Christmas Owls and for this collection I printed off two design sheets and two backing papers, then mixed and matched the elements.
For this card, I started with a sheet of kraft card and inked the edges in red. Then I added elements, with the image matted in red. The holly sprays and sentiment were added with 3D adhesive.
I am sharing this card with
Christmas Crafts All Year round - Something beginning with K or L - KRAFT (well, I did promise not to choose Kings or Lights!)
Sparkles Christmas - Kraft
Next I made a Twisted Easel card, using kraft for matting this time and adding lots of red crystal bling.
I am sharing this with Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge - anything goes
The third card is a slimline card with distressing on the edges and green pearlescent card used for matting. There is a single layer of decoupage to make the owl stand out from the tree behind him.
I am sharing this with Fezziwig's Festive Frolics - Red and Green
And now..... drum roll.... all three cards together, courtesy of Collage-It.
How cool! These image and paper CD's are nowhere to be found over here in the states that I can locate. The papers and images you used are so crisp and eye-catching, even if they are old, they are new again. Gorgeous cards, xoxo
ReplyDeleteLove all these gorgeous papers and images layered with kraft - so fun and playful! Thanks so much for playing at Sparkles!
ReplyDeleteGreat cards Jane. My favourite is the first one. The red ink really goes well with the Kraft card.
