I coloured the flower image in with Prismacolor pencil crayons and proceeded to smudge it all over the inside of the card. I am not sure colouring in is my favourite technique. The flower is stuck to the inside of the card and overhangs the edge. There is a matching "window" on the front which allows the card to lie flat. You trim the card to standard dimensions so that it fits in the envelope, which I would never have thought of but that Jennifer is just a genius.
As you can see, this card is written! One of my stamping friends (Carol) knows a girl in California who is battling sepsis at the minute. She (the girl, not Carol!) turns 22 next week and I've been following her story so I thought I'd send her a card. Hope she likes it. (I managed to get rid of the smudges first you'll be glad to hear!)
Have I mentioned "Don't Panic - Dinner's in the Freezer" before? Well, I recently discovered the book and have been stocking my freezer up completely every 4-6 weeks. I tried some new recipes last week, including Cannoli. I had absolutely no idea what Cannoli were but anything with sausages in gets my vote! Well, I cooked the first batch tonight and they were yummy. Sort of like an American version of the much-missed Sausage Roll. They have our vote.
I miss sausage rolls too! I make my own - I'll send you the cheat recipe :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you are enjoying the card class. I really like cards that aren't just regular shapes, but I'v never been sure how to mail them. Apparently, I would never have thought of trimming them either!
Very pretty i live the dogwood flowes.
ReplyDeleteLovely card. Great job with the technique.
