DCM "Cut" Challenge & Golden Anniversary Card Commission ...





DCM Challenge
- CUT!


Any theme goes,
so for those of you needing a break from Christmas crafting this is the perfect
opportunity to have a change. All styles are welcome but there MUST be an
element of handcutting somewhere. It could be a greeting, a shape, letters
printed on your pc and handcut, anything goes as long as you did it by
hand.

... for a friend. A5 gold card. On the front are flowers embossed from the Glitter Girls Bookatrix board, done in gold and ivory and 3D decoupaged and punched flower a gem to finish it off. The leaves are from the same board in brown/gold card. Also from the Glitter Girls Majestic board a ruffled oval, and finished with peel-offs. On the inside there is a vellum with Golden Anniversary, and Happy 50th Anniversary printed in gold. A heart pop out on top of that with some peel-offs to finish it off. I have also made a box with an acetate front and some individual yellow roses as embellishments.
