Beatrix Potter Sneak Peek - No 3

Hello

Sorry a bit late with this one today, busy busy busy.  I have blogged once but that was a scheduled post.  I  love Appley Dapply, how cute is she and this card is made from a card base that is already prepared with a lovely detailed BP image on it.    I have this image in a stamp and its just gorgeous to colour too. You can use the card base just as it comes however i wanted to decorate it a bit and put my own personal touches on.

So what i did was cut a circle out of the main card front which contained the main part of the image.  Then i cut a  scalloped frame using my nesties and also one for the inside.  I then added a piece of acetate so its like a window and decorated the inside of the card.  I added the second frame to the inside to hide the edges of the acetate and it all looks neat and tidy.


The card is finished off with some Beatrix Potter gingham gingham ribbon and some gems to match.  I love this card, i now its mine and that sounds really big headed but its just sooo pretty.  Good products to work with though so its all down to Crafters Companion.  You can just see above the white frame on the inside to cover the edges up.

Don't forget if you haven't already join in the blog hop and watch the Pick of the day on Ideal world at 9pm on Tuesday.


Oooo and did you see Sara on HSE last night with the launch of the popcorn the bear CD for the first time in Germany?  Guess what it sold out..........  how fab is that.   Well not just the launch of the popcorn cd the launch of any CD crafting in Germany, i think.  I saw some of my cards that i made and will add a few more soon.

Hope you like it too.
