For A Labrador Lover.....


I was commissioned to make another card for the same customer who I made the Nadine & Dave cards for. This time the brief was for a card for a labrador lovers 25th birthday. I don't have a cart with a recognisable labrador on, so I turned to trusty Google Images and downloaded a picture of a golden labrador. I printed it out twice onto textured cardstock- giving it a look of a canvas print- then decoupaged the images for dimension. I used papers from the DCWV Natural stack and a simple layout. The image was matted onto brown cardstock & gold mirri card. The panels of patterned paper received the same treatment. The completed image panel was adhered to the card front with foam tape. The sentiment & '25' were cut from paper and shadowed with gold mirri, then adhered with foam pads. Gold Card Candi dots complete the card.
Carts used:
