This is the Card I made for Lovely Lady Bev for her Mum as requested. This card was a NO NO we both agreed it looked a bit tacky. So a second card was made, No it looks like an Easter Egg said her friend. Sanity flown out the window, now had half a day to do new card and the brief was keep the Pink Roses; keep the style of lettering but in silver on a white Linen look card that I had used before.
So I Googled Pink Roses picture came up with Roses in glass vase, so printed 1 image on glossy photo paper, then printed same image on inkjet acetate sheet and decoupaged it to look 3D; did the same effect for inside card verse the same as Easter Egg card. On the back of the card another decoupaged vase of the Pink Roses only smaller.
She absolutely LOVED IT, and my sanity was restored.......

My mum was overcome with emotion, she cried and cried I think that they were tears of joy and gratitude. She couldn't believe that someone had gone to so much trouble to make such a beautiful card and included the very kind works especially for her. She said that she will keep the card on display forever.
ReplyDeleteThank you Angie for helping to make my mum's birthday extra special.
