Joanne here this week and I’d like to see
circles
You might use circles as a design element, frame a focal point with a circle, stamp an object that contains circles (bikes have wheels, clock faces, dream catchers etc).
See some circular inspiration from the design team HERE |
Its been a while since I made a Circle card and they are fun to make - its all about getting the balance right so that when they stop rolling they are the right way up! For this one, it was easy - I just added more leafy sprigs until it was right!
As it happened I had a circle already cut from a piece of card embossed with the new Leafy Helix embossing folder, and I also had spares of the pink and white daisies I'd been using on other projects. The sentiment was from a set I'd made and printed in a 'useful' shade of green that seems to work with lots of projects!
I used a circle die to cut the base card then added the flowers and sentiment. I cut out one each of the leafy dies and cut them into pieces, then tucked them amongst the flowers, standing the card up every now and then to check whether it was correctly balanced.
Items Used:
You really do have the patience of a saint when it comes to die cuts, I’d probably give up long before I ever got a circle card to balance let alone one with an explosion of daisies like this — love it!
