The Craft Room, Derby: Beauty of Friendship different type of card

Beauty of Friendship different type of card

Good morning, an early start again today.I thought I heard wind chimes, lots of them. A bit strange as it was only just sunrise and it wasn’t forecast to be windy. So I got up and came to have a look. Imagine my surprise when I saw these sheep and a shepherd who actually posed for me. A great way to start the day.

Here is a card that was made during one of the days that we had a crafting session in The Craft Room, Derby. Everyone came armed with their own supplies and we sat and made cards for a couple of hours, to see how we felt about crafting together. I am really pleased to say, it worked out a treat.

I took a sheet of Soft Succulent card and created a Base Card with it (C6 / A6). I added a piece of the 6x6 2021-2023 In Colour Designer Speciality Paper to the front of the card and then ran this through the die cutting machine, cutting out a large circle.

I got an A4 sheet of Basic White card and created another card base that fit inside the Soft Succulent card, leaving a small border all the way around. I made sure that the Basic White card had the crease towards the outside and using a pencil, I gently marked out the circle. I then stamped the tree branches, once, and it created the wonderful image, from the Beauty of Friendship stamp set. I rubbed out the pencil marks and stamped the tree trunk.

I then opened up the Basic White insert and stamped one of the other trees from the stamp set using the same colours, this is where I shall write my greeting. Using Evening Evergreen card and 2 circle dies, I cut out a frame to go around the circle on the front of the card.
