Would you believe that the Country Diaries of an Edwardian Lady CD contains wonderful images to create masculine cards? Well it does… I recently showed you a card (Autumn Card) which I made for my brother in law Richard; and today I have just made a belated birthday card (I know it’s late) for my brother in law Ron. As you can see it was a simple card to make but looks quite effective. I simple cut the image with my large rectangle nestabilities and then cut a co-ordinating mount using the rectangle scallop nestabilities. The background paper was also from the CD and has been cut 2mm smaller than the card so that a white border is shown. I used some of our ribbon and added some glossy accents to the image. I thought about adding some rhinestones but choose not too for a masculine card.
My friend and stamping buddy Jo came over to visit last night to help me prepare samples for the forthcoming shows. Next week is Worthing show (in West Sussex) and Harrogate show (in North Yorkshire) and yes crazy woman that I am, Stamps & Memories will be at both shows!! Lots of new stock has arrived and more is arriving every day as the shows approach .
