Another two cards made in my series of using up a magazine kit and I do like the final results but it was one of those sessions where it didn’t quite go to plan!

Two totally different designs and colour schemes – let’s start with the lilac one!

I added embossing and inking on this one – also the large fuschia image as the focal point which I’ve not used often in this series of using up the magazine kit.

Added the gems and the ribbon for the top of the card.
Trimming it down to fit the standard A6 UK card size also worked quite well.

Next up the peach themed card.

I added the papers the wrong way round so the sketch isn’t quite right but it’s close enough!

I added stencilling to the background panel and then trimmed off the final layer again to fit the UK sized card blank.

Added the lovely little crochet flower and leaf from the Hey Little Magpie embellishment kit ‘overflow’ box! Really cute and the colour works well.

Happy crafting!

Sometimes the things that don’t go quite right turn out the best – these are lovely!
