Vintage Bird ATC

Secret Garden Graphic 45 . Lots of fussy cutting.

Star Sketch

This challenge was to use the following sketch to design a card. I have used  Basic Grey- Serendipity collection for the card. The design is from the SIL store cut on the SIL Cameo. The sentiment Stampin up Itty Bitty Banners. The card has 3 layers and uses the negative effect in building layers.

Sea Horse ATC

The base of this ATC is Pion Design- shoreline.
I cut the seahorse on the SILCameo and then embossed with Holgram silver powder. The shells were collected on a visit to Robe earlier in the year. The border is using embossing enamel. Slightly thicker than embossing powder it is great for accents. The little oyster charm is adorable. One of my favourite topics to design cards for.

Binder Trading Card - Dragonflies

Binder Trading cards are smaller than ATC's 3 1/2 inches by 1.75 inches with a small hole to thread on a ring. I have embossed the dragon fly stamps with gold embossing powder. This was also used to border the card. A small dragonfly charm  dangles from some gold wire wrapped around the card.

Gatefold Card from this months  Australian Papercraft magazine. I found the metric measurements difficult to convert to inches and they seemed to be slightly out as if someone had converted them from inches for the Australian magazine.  I enjoyed making it and will enter into a challenge for ScrapPit a facebook card group.
