I just don't believe how easy this card was to make! The image is a background scene from Card Creations Art Deco which I printed out onto the thickest card my printer would take. I used lots of Glitter Glass for the snow on the bridge and ballustrade and crystal glitter for the overhanging branches in the trees. The sentiment is computer generated.I took 20 photos to try and depict the sparkliness and winter frostiness that the original card conveys. This was the best one and only shows a little of the sparkle. The real life one has turned out magnificently and did not involve any skill other than cutting out, glueing and glittering. It is so good, I shall be making some more! The added advantage is that it will travel by ordinary stamp as the card is not more than 5mm thick!!
Thanks for dropping by and please feel free to leave a comment - I appreciate them all.
Oh you clever girl I would never have thought of that. It is a super image and I know what you mean about the sparkle not showing in the piccies.

Janet, the sparkle shines through. I don't know how you got it to do that. I have such problems with scanning and photos. This is so beautiful. It is the ideal winter scene and card.
ReplyDeleteSo sparkly, this is lovely. So nice to see the oval shape too.

Thanks for visiting today, Janet. I do so appreciate your taking your valuable time to leave comments. Hope your weather is better. The party is Friday. I am still working on the house. Just discovered I'm missing a couple of forks and a couple of knives to a set. I'll have to use non-matching silverware.
ReplyDeleteA fantastic card Janet, love all that glitter. Thank you for joining in the challenge with us at CD Sunday this week. Hugs, Anne (CDS DT)
