New Home Card

 

NEW HOME CARD (BIRDHOUSE)


CRAFTWORK CARDS AMAZING SHAPE CARDS


NEW HOME/BIRD HOUSE
 
 
I saw these shape cards from the amazing Craftwork cards and I fell in love with them. They are such fun to work with and I love that you can use them for so many different occassions. 
 
I used the Bohemian papers (birdcage) Candi and mini flowers also from Craftwork cards. They are such soft gorgeous colours and I love the chic look you get from them.
I drew around the shape of the card onto the paper and drew the circle and i cut it out very carefully as I wanted to use it for the inside of the card.
 
 
I stuck the paper to the front and then 
I inked the edges of the card with lavender ink just to soften the edges, I added some glitter to the flowers and the bottom of the card, just to make them stand out. The leaves are hat pins and I added some lace that I inked with the lavender and some beautiful bold pink ribbon that I folded and glued to make the roof
 
 
For the inside of the card I inked around the edges to soften it and match it in with the outside, I used the Bohemian paper to make the sentiment and used the Candi to frame it
