Framed Silk Atc Card Bases SetCompleted by Donna Ritchie

These bases are so gorgeous that they demanded to be printed on high gloss photo paper. I then tried to show some of the variety of ways in which they could be used (the cards shown will be traded at an upcoming Athon). The simplest is to stamp and emboss a saying (centre front card) - this could then be used as the focal point of a greeting card or as the insert inside. The cards in the back row from the left are: using a die cut decorated with rhinestones; an iris folded dragon (cup131734_96); a design die cut from the card, paper pieced then returned to the original space but raised on foam squares; a chipboard design embossed and with the star coloured using gold Stickles.

These would also look great with a cameo in the centre, or a country scene or. . . I hope that I have started your creative juices. Enjoy these beautiful frames.
