It's almost Mother's Day and I have finished my gift shopping and card making. I actually got a card in the mail early this year too! Our challenge at
Bitten by the Bug2 this week is "Mother's Day", so I made a card for my daughter. She likes something a little different, so I choose to go with a lady head and background from the Art Nouveau cartridge. The paper curled a bit when I added the glitter pen, but I left it, it reminded me of waves in the hair, giving a 3D effect. There are always tiny pieces and intricate cuts when using this cartridge and I sometimes get frustrated. This time I put a new blade in the Explore and had no problems at all. It's amazing what a new blade will get you.

ReplyDeleteAnd here I thought you did the waves on purpose! It looks like waves of hair SHOULD be coming off the page! Very unique and pretty-love it!!!! I wish I was as organized-gotta get my card in the mail ASAP! You are so right about the difference a new blade makes.
