Card Art Kilcoole

September DT Challenge

for Craft for the Craic

Theme, Anything but a Square or Rectangle 

I decided to give the C5 side opening card a rounded finish

Front and back panels are 15cm by 21cm

and the front panel is scored at 6cm to form the side opening.

I use a side plate as a template for the front layers

the back layer is cut with a fiskars corner edge scissors

these scissors are no longer available from fiskars

but you can fine the odd one on ebay, if you see it grab it.

I added a pink mat layer inside, and a greeting panel to the back wall of the card, and a poem to the inside left panel

and finished the back layer with

 paper flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts

card fully opened

I chose a lovely vintage baby image

and decoupaged the layers

and added it to a circle doily

I added some lace to the side panel 

which is stuck down flat

and finished it with a double bow.
