Back to the Kendras card challenge number 20 and this time sketches 4 – 6.
Using the papers from the Kingston Crafts Christmas pad along with acetate pieces I made these three cards.
This one I inked the edges of the papers using the Peeled Paint oxide and then added the gorgeous string lights and then the sentiment using the acetate pieces.
I used foam adhesive to add dimension and then a paper twine for the added texture and embellishment of the bow!
This one had more ‘white’ space with the pink panel so I embossed it with an old embossing folder and sanded it back to expose the core – this added a lovely texture to the card – very different from all the shiny acetate pieces.
I did go a bit OTT with the pieces on this but I think it turned out very cute!
On this one I again embossed a panel and sanded it back – just love doing this with the Kingston Crafts white core papers.
Then added dimension with the sentiment and the larger candy canes.
I also decided to distress the edges of all the panels to give it a nice texture and missed the bottom panel off to show the card blank which has the same patterned paper as the majority of the front of this card.
As I used the patterned paper to make these three card bases I added a white panel to each but with a border to show off the pattern.
I think these photos also show off the dimension I got on all three cards – definitely showing off those papers and the acetate pieces.
Happy crafting!
