Turquoise DaisyCompleted by Gwyneth George

Although this card makes a lovely card on its own, this time I decided to use it on an A4 base card from y stock.

Firstly I printed the sheet onto super smooth white card and cut out all the elements.

I gently shaped the "brad" round elements by running a ball tool over their back and then I put a layer of glaze over them.

I printed out a sheet of polkadots onto meltdust paper and sprinked with lemon meltdust and heat-embossed it. For the matting and layering behind the image I firstly stuck down a silver mirror card with a flek of holographic in it.

I took the back image from the sheet and mounted it onto blue card from my stash which had a similar tone to one of the blues in the card and cut the blue card 1cm larger than the image in each direction and rounded the corners.

I then stuck this onto the yellow polkadot paper. Behind the yellow polkadot paper I put a corner of the same blue card as used for the matt and curled this over, piercing a hole through all the layers and putting a plain brad through to hold in place.

I then used double sided tape to stick the matted and layerd image onto the silver card. I also made a greetings pannel by sticking a piece of the yellow polkadot paper to the silver holographic paper and stuck to the bottom of the base card towards the right hand side.

To finish the card I used glue gell to stick on the added embelishments from the sheet covering the plain brad with the previously varnished round and gently curving the flower petles backwords and also giving the ribbon embelishment a bit of dimension as well before these were attached.
