Pastel Tartan Paper 1Completed by Jean Pennington

I chose this paper because of the clean, fresh look. It can also be used to make many different cards. After inserting a Get Well Soon verse, I printed it on 90 gsm paper for the card inner. I printed the design again on 300 gsm card to decorate the card front. For the main card I folded a piece of A4 white card to A5 size, then attached the green tartan design using double sided tape. I mounted a piece of gold mirror card for the backing mat. To make the decoration I chose a squirl with a flower and coloured them by choosing a colour from the design. The sentiment was made in the same way, and I cut them using a Silhouette Cameo, but any design could be used to decorate. From the remainder of the printed tartan card I cut flowers and attached them to the card with sticky pads. Gem stones were used to embellish.
