Over the past few years I have created quite a number of cards, but I do have a handful of favourites and this is one of them.
I made this for my Mum's birthday. The card was created using a piece of Papermania acetate, I handcut a bracket shape from K&Co paper and attached on the inside. All that was left to do was to go to town decorating it! I added a dangling charm, which, if I had thought about it I should have made it detachable so it could have been used as a handbag charm!
I like to do commissions for family and friends and this is the most requested one. I thought that I would share a different version that I created recently.
In essence it's the same card with a small change to the embellishments.
Sometimes I have a little bit of a mental block when I am creating something in a short time frame and often find that it is helpful to refer back to previous cards that I have made and either make a direct copy or take some elements or the basic sketch and twist it slightly to make a new card. A good idea when you are in a pinch for an idea!
Is there a card that you have made that you like to remake? Do you use your own cards when feeling a bit low on mojo?
It may be an old favourite for you, but its a new one for me they are both gorgeous!!!! x Leigh x
