Cards made at Art of Craft , December 2014

these first two I made in 15 mins each including the decoupage . You can get a production line going.
If you need to make a few. Cutting out several of the matting and layering elements at once is a good start.

These next two were made in under ten mins each.

Then I made a little gift box using Bellissimo Christmas as above 2 cards

Then if you are sick of Christmas cards , how about the lovely new capsule range 

French Lavender. These following cards are adapted from the December magazine.

Roald Dahl. Gift card holder card

hello, this is an idea for a card to give as a holder for vouchers or gift cards.
I will have it the art of craft demo tomorrow if you want to see it , come and say hello.

I started with an 8x8 stepper card. The front fold has a lovely light gold glitter

Card base with a punched red border. This was topped with a red glitter

Ribbon.

The back is covered with an embossed and inked checked paper.

The cute image is matted onto red. Little elf girl is decoupaged

And glittered with red stickles. 

I also printed out the image much smaller to make a matching gift card
