The house is mine, all mine. :-) Yes, everyone has gone back to school and work.
Now it is so (too) very quiet....never happy hey!
Another card for my April Swaps over at Craftmad. I found a template for this card in one of the magazines my Mum had given me. I cut the shape out using Bazzill card - Parakeet. Then I cut some gold foil out for the top section of the card and embossed the cork line. I cut some strips from my Celebrate Dandelion Wishes patterned paper. I wrapped this around the bottle then created the seal by using my circle Spellbinder. The top layer is a bronze foil which I embossed free hand by drawing swirls on the back. Next I needed a label so I added another piece from the patterned paper and printed out my own label on the computer. Once again I had to create my own envelop....this one was a little more challenging as I had to use an envelope I had here as a template and adjust the sizing.
Don't forget tonight over at Craftmad is the Create and Chat night. Kaye will be talking everyone through the making of a Circle Album. Material List here and Times here.
