Bright and Brighter

 

Hello!

Welcome to my little crafting place! Here's where I share the things I've been making, and sometimes other bits of waffle!

This time my card is another for the Daring Cardmakers

See what the DT made here

 

I made a couple of cards, one using the good old Festive colourway of bright red and gold and the econd you'll need your sunnies for! 

 

Card 1; The Traditional One

 

Lots of favourite Spellbincers goodis on here. Some still in the store but others are oldies. JOY is a Glimmer sentiment, foiled directly onto the card front.

The little holly corner is foiled with a Betterpress plate from one of this year's collections; the Essential Tag Accessories, from Lisa Horton

There's a mix of dies, mainly frpm the Sealed collection (love them!), but a couple of others found their way in

All in different finished of Gold and Red, so its certainly bright - especially when it catchres the light

Card 2; The Very Bright One

 

 

I inked some pieces of card with bright shades of Lime, Hot Pink and Turquoise.

While they were drying I used the Stars Glimmer plate and confetti foil to create the background of multi-coloured stars directly onto a black card blank.  

Then I die cut the letters (very old Spellbinders set!) from the inked card and gkued them in place. The stoclings are from

Mantel Decoration  - Timeless Trees Collection by Simon Hurley
 if you look closely you'll see each has a different embossed pattern!

I glued them together with a little overlap and their hanging loops roughly together, then usd waxed twine to hang them on the card as I wanted them to move around when the card itself is moved
