Art deco card

Ah, Monday! I never thought I’d say that. I usually hate Mondays… Oh well, I’ve started preferring week days as of late. The past month or two, weekends haven’t exactly gone to plan. At least summer is around the corner. Hopefully things will soon be back to how they were. I have a lot of cards on request lately, so that should hopefully keep me busy for the next month.

The image is from Papermania, and the patterened background paper is by Paper Cellar. The feathers are also from Papermania, I believe, whereas the pearls are from The Hobby House. I have used flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts.

Golden Art Deco

A while ago I went to a Range store in Essex, England. I found some gorgeous art deco images with matching accessories: papers, feathers, flowers, greetings and so on. Here is the first card I made using some of the bits I purchased. I used the newly acquired image, greeting and black feather, some old black lace I had laying about and some papers. I distressed around the edge of the white card blank and folded a corner down on the background paper. The flowers are from Wild Orchid Crafts. The photo has a yellow tint to it, so it’s not quite as yellow as this looks.
