Love is all you need C5 linen effect card - House and tree in silhouette 

Day 6 of my 365 day challenge

Hi Craft addicts!

Today's card is one that I had started out thinking of it being a home decor piece but I then thought it would look better as a card!

How I made this card:-

• I| used a C5 white linen effect card and used it landscape instead of portrait.
• I first of all used a black fineliner pen to add a border (using one of the scallops as a guide to make it equal)
• I had previously cut out the ornate rectangle using a Spellbinders die and whilst it was still in it, coloured it in using dark shades of green and black Distress/Pigment inks to create sky scene.
• It also mean that the border had some of the colours too which added some depth to the frame.
• I then attached it to a sheet of green paper (from the Rainbow Radiance paper pad from Hunkydory) and trimmed it to fit (allowing for a small border).
• I cut out the house and tree using the Forest Pines dies using Lynda Chapman's black card and glued it to the left hand side of the panel.
• I then added the moon and trees stamps to the other side of it.
• I added some white pencil/pen to add pathways and some black shadows
• I then added the whole panel to the centre of the card using foam pads to add some height to it.
• I added some green shades of ink to the Love is all you need sentiment and placed it on the bottom of the card.
• Finally, I added the drops and chevrons embellishments to each corner to add more dimension.

And there you are - a different kind of card that you could give for Valentine's day - but of course the sentiment could be whatever one you want!
