My husband will put the card in a drawer so I kind of kept it simple. Hes not a huge fan of major embellished cards so I hope he likes this one!!
Entering into the following challenges.
The paper girls challenge-=========== Chipboard (The swirl and the 2 hearts. Happy to use them!)
Especially for you---------- 3 brads (the 3 brass ones at the bottom of the oval. Using the mans work rule, 2 to watch and 1 for working)
Sassy studio------------ use 3 of something (brads)
Some odd girl----- sketch! Thanks!
Desert Island- Pick at least three! I went with 1 for the husband,3 one year anniversary,7 (those darn chipboard pieces)8 (the charm is new as well as the flowers) 9 (The digi image was free, I won it!) and 10 for the blue hues.
CC&C- ------For the boys My husband!
One stitch at a time--------- Anything goes
Totally Gorjuss--------- Charmed!
Creative inspirations------- anything goes!
Tip top tuesday---------- dig out the old. I dug deep for the chipboard!
Tip- when making an easel card turn everything over to line things up and attach the pieces. Make sure you have your glue already added to the "bottom" of the card not on the "top" part. If you add glue to the top you may add it in the wrong spot and get glue left out. Before I started to do this my easel cards were always crooked, never lined up and had that random glue spot but now I am able to make them look sharp and much nicer. This is probably a very beginner tip for easel card makers, but one I had to learn a long hard way!

What a gorgeous card and if hubby puts it in a drawer I suggest you take it back out again and display it on your desk ;)
ReplyDeleteGreat Top Tip too - no Tip is ever 'too beginnerish' (if you know what I mean!) Some of the best Top Tips I've ever heard are the ones that after you've read you slap your forehead and think 'why on earth have I never thought of that before'
Thanks for joining us over at Top Tip Tuesday for our 'Dig it Out' challenge.
