Carnations and Roses with Ornate Frame and Decoupage

Printed onto glossy photo paper. Attached base image to card stock using PVA glue. Built up image with 1mm foam pads. Finished by adding gold peel offs.

Printed on matte photo paper. I rough-cut the base image and glued it (glue stick) to a card so that the furthest left edges were against the fold of the card.

When it was dry, I cut out the design through all layers (image and both card layers), but tapered off my cut in the middle of the second set of "bumps" on the left so that the portion of the card in the middle, under the bow and to about the center of each "bump", was still intact.

I printed a second copy of the base image, removed the center oval, and attached it with silicone over the first image to give some dimension to the frame.

Also added the decoupage and sentiment with silicone.

Finished with some Liquid Pearl dots around the oval and in the corners and a vintage-look bow to cover the portion of the folded card that was still visible.

This is SO beautiful.

I printed out the sheet on 230gm glossy paper and cut out the base design I used double sided tape to stick this to the 5 x 7 greeting card blank, using 2mm sticky foam pads I added the decoupage pieces to the base, matching the picture up whilst going along on this stunning easy to assemble card.
