Good Afternoon
A warm welcome to my new followers, I'm glad you like my cards.
My card for today is for the current challenge over at
The CD Sunday Challenge which this week is Around The World. I decided to go to Paris, and here is my card.
I am very pleased with how this card has worked out. I printed a decoupage image from Debbi Moores Art Deco Paris cd-rom, along with a couple of backgrounds. I matted the decoupage onto some lovely pearlescent cardstock I got some time ago from papermill. I matted the backgound onto some antique gold card and added some glitter to the tower and fireworks. The roses are made from the same gold using a Marianne die. The leaves are cut from black cardstock and gold embossing powder added to the stems. The buckle is cut using a Memorybox die with black organza ribbon threaded through.
I used a second scene to decorate the inside of the card:
I cut some white card using a spellbinders die and gold embossed the edges so there is somewhere to write.
My card is also for the following challenges:
Polka Doodles - Use ribbon
Top Tip Tuesday - Use layers
Time To Craft - Use punches, dies or both
Paperplay Challenges - Use black
Moving Along With The Times - Vintage
Totally Papercrafts - Layer upon layer
