Be the Reason...smile today 7in Z fold card - 365 day challenge
Hi Craft addicts!
Today's handmade card is one using a variety of products from stamps to a guillotine...
- I used one of the 7" unscored cards that Red Button produce and scored it (using my Hunkydory Adorable Scoreboard) in the middle (7") and then again on the left hand side at 3.5" and scored them to create a Z fold card.
- I stamped the floral image and sentiment out on to some white stamping card (they are both from Honey Doo Crafts Floral Reasons set) using Gina K Obsidian Black ink and coloured it in using Spectrum Noir Illustrator alcohol markers.
- I then used the largest square stitched dies from Toni Darroch's Stamp by Me Star Stitching set to cut it out (some of the stamped image did get cropped) and then edged it with a black alcohol marker.
- I then added it to some wooden effect paper (from Crafter's Companion) and then stuck it to some of Lynda Chapman's Black card (from Creative Crafting World) and cut it so there was a narrow border all around it using my Woodware guillotine.
- To decorate the card itself, I cut two different sized panel in Bright Yellow paper/card from Create & Craft (one approximately 3" for the front and the other about 6" for the middle of the card) and stuck them (with a tape pen) to some of the same black card, trimming them both so that they left a narrow white border around them when stuck down using PVA glue (making sure they both lined up with each other).
- Finally, I used some PVA glue on the left hand side of the main topper panel and attached it to the front of the card ensuring that there was no glue to make it stick to the centre of the card.
