Gorjuss Girl Easel Card



To make the actual card I used my Brother Scan & Cut. I welded 2 scalloped ovals together to make the main card and then another scalloped oval in the pink for the front.  I then cut yet another scalloped oval in a different cardstock for the base.



The image is from one of the Gorjuss Girl A4 Ultimate Die Cut & Paper Pack.

It is a decoupage topper that I used Pinflair Glue Gel to put the image together. 


I did think that this style card worked better with the topper as it looks as though she is sitting on a pole across the whole card.


I felt that putting flowers each side of the image helped give the impression that the pole was going from one side to the other.

I used Tonic Verdant Vines Die Set for the leaves behind the flowers.


The flowers were made using a Tattered Lace Mini Flowers Die with a clear crystal in the center of each flower.

Around the edges of the top layer and bottom of the card I have put some faux stitching to add a little interest and pull your eyes into the card.


As the stopper for the card to stand up I used a flower I drew and scanned into my Brother Scan & Cut and then cut some out in the same cardstock as the base of the card.

The Green filigree design underneath the flower is from a Heartfelt Creations Die on BazzelBing cardstock.

In the center of the flower is a Craftwork Cards Card Candi.

Tonic Shutter Card with Polkadoodle Digi Stamps


To make this card I used Tonic Indulgence Shutter Die - Liberty Set with black cardstock and White Centura Pearl Cardstock.



When standing up this is the card was designed to look like as I wanted the impression of the Bride and Groom coming out of where they got married and the Vicar hanging back to allow photos to be taken.


The panels along the top were made with the dies in the Liberty Set in Centura Pearl with a square silver lined crystal just above the center of the heart.


Down the front of the card I used heart pearls in the hearts from the die cut.


Down the back panel I used the waste created from making the shutter card to add a little interest.



Along the middle of the card I used the Tonic Verso Strip Die Set - Clematis Climber in white Centura Pearl.


The Bride and Groom are from Polkadoodles Work and Play - Love and Kisses cd along with the Vicar.

The Bride and Groom were coloured in with Spectrum Noir Alcohol Pens and Spectrum Noir Pencils.

I used Debbi Moore Designs Print Magic - Crystal on the Brides vale. 


I used a Sakura Gelly Roll Pen to colour the Brides Tiara. I then used round and square silver lined crystals on the Tiara in place of the gem marks on the digi stamp.


I also used Spectrum Noir Alcohol Pens and Spectrum Noir Pencils to colour the Vicar and the used Glossy Accents on her glasses.

I used my Brother Scan & Cut to cut out the Digi Stamps and there mats behind the figures.
