Dragons lair DT post

i have so busy that life is coming back round. To meet me !! This is my last DT post for Dragons Lair because of that- however I shall still support them as they have lovely papers and digis. This is the pansy collection and it's so pretty and versatile .
This is the front of a chipboard album, I removed the rings so I can use the pages separately
This one has been painted with pink acrylic paint and then covered with Dragons Lair collection papers and embellishments
It's for a Mothers birthday and I added a calendar as there are still 9 months to go this year

What a lovely collection this is, very pretty colours and designs.

Dragons lair 'Pansy ' collection - pop up card

The lovely new Pansy collection from Dragons Lair is released in April, it's very adaptable and pretty

I decided to make a pop up card , I haven't made one for ages and had almost forgotten how to do it.

Below is the template for this one

If you can't see the measurements it's an inch both sides of the fold and an inch wide too

I printed this design on thick card and made it into my card as above.

And with the cut out pansies stuck on as below

Make sure  that your chosen topper doesn't go above the card or it won't go in the envelope 

See below photo. 

I put some of the pretty green from the collection on the back to cover the cut outs for the pop ups

See below picture 

I added some embellishments and a sentiment

Hello, I love using Dragons Lair designs & am very happy my printer is working again!
This card is made by layering up the mats on the card using craft serif . I added some shadow to make it 3D & printed out. I used the bow and butterfly again cut out and put on afterwards. It was all then put onto a white square card.

 This one below is also using the Oh Baby mine collection from Dragons Lair Designs - find them

Cards from March DoCrafts loop

Hello , here are a couple of cards I made today at Andover Range Demonstration.

This one uses a lovely embossing frame on cream card which I lightly inked with soft brown and red inks. I used one of the new Anita's foiled decoupage with a parchment die cut doily under it.

This below is another Anita's foiled decoupage topper, this time it's on the front of a 

fold back front card

I am loving the new Natures Gallery range, very Tim Holtz feel to it.

This card below is a collection of ripped and torn papers layered with another parchment die cut doily 

At the left side. I made one of the papers into a little book with a sentiment on
