Celtic Background Purple 2Completed by Gwyneth George

I printed the card onto good quality white card, trimmed off the white edging, and then scored and trimmed to give a box 1.5cm deep and 4cm wide by the side of a folded card base. I cut out a window and attached acetate behind this before sticking the box side and tucking in the top and bottom. The box card was decorated with a gold mat which had a colour co-ordinating feather and a ribbon in metalized purple colour attached. Two strips of ribbon were also attached to the top and bottom front of the box area.

Perfect for giving a small piece of jewellery or a beaded bookmark, and handy to have a card attached already.

While backgrounds are great for cardmaking, there are so many other uses you can put them to.
