Cleverprints Blog 15

Hi and once again welcome. This week's blog consists of something we all need from time to time - a quick card! The initial thought was to add stamped images however the card and paper collection is rather delightful thus simplicity became the order of the day with a few glittery highlights for definition. Enjoy! 

 Cleverprints

Ten Minute Card. 


Materials:-
  • Cleverprints - 'Under the Sea' Card and Paper Collection - one sheet cut to measure 12cm x 12cm
Extras:-
  • 15cm x 15cm card blank
  • 13cm x 13cm cardstock - white
  • Glue Pen
  • Fine Glitter - Hint of  Copper
  • Foam Tape
Instructions:-

1. Select sheet from 'Under the Sea' collection. 

2. Trim to measure 12cm x 12cm. (I chose to use the seahorse as a feature.) Adhere to 13cm x 13cm square of white card with foam tape to add dimension. Edge white border with toning alcohol marker.

3, Cut two squares from off-cuts to measure 4cm x 4cm. Cut those along one diagonal to form four triangles. Attach three of these, one to each corner, omitting top right-hand side. 

4. Again from off-cuts trim out two sentiments and attach - with strips of foam tape - to two diagonally opposite corners at top left and bottom right. (I edged the sentiments with a black Sharpie before adhering.) 

5. Outline areas of the printed image with a glue pen then sprinkle over glitter.

Et voila - a ten minute card!

Best wishes and . . . 

Happy crafting.
