This is only my second entry so...... as I have done so poorly I thought I would add a card I made . This is my first attempt at a box frame card ( made completely from scratch - no pre- cut card or template etc .)
I bought a rather nice sheet of gift wrap and it worked perfectly , and at 45p so much cheaper than proper crafting 'pretty paper' tends to be , I like to save money when I can to spend on stamps instead but I will save my rubber stamping obsession for another days entry !
It is a new baby card made using a lovely 'Pennyblack' stamp
I stamped it 4 times and coloured in with pro-markers before cutting out and layering up in the recess of the box frame . A few flowers punched out with a small flower punch ( think it's one from x-cuts) and a small seed bead stuck in the centre of each .
The words were stamped out using 'The Letter Box Set' by the Rolls Royce of stamp manufacturers 'Clarity'.
Barbara Grey who is one of my craft idols is the person behind Clarity and she is an inspiration - my Clarity stamp collection is relatively small but growing.
Well enough prattle from me today but I will try hard to make it back tomorrow !
