Birthday Card

 


Sorry I seem to have been awol for a while - crafting has been on the back burner so to speak for a while, but after all these months of lockdown - I have been Out Out, and even Away Away.  (I had a lovely weekend away on the Isle of Wight with my son last week -  Lovely weather, brilliant food, live music and dancing!   I don't often get to spend time with just my son - in fact I can't remember ever doing so before).  I confess it has taken me a quite a few days to get back to normal - whatever that is!

I did find a smidgen of mojo and manage to make this card this week.  As it was for a male, I went completely abstract with this Clarity die.  I coloured my card with various inks before die-cutting.   I felt it needed something else in the way of a border, and in my stash I had this border that I had cut from some Clarity paper, which blended well with the colours I had used.   Having attached diecut to te card, I added a bit of glue and glitter.  The words were printed in Craft Artist, and then back with a piece of the card I had coloured..
