Get your skates on!


Here's another card in the same styley as yesterday's. This time I use papers from MME in icy blues and pinks. The card was made in exactly the same way as yesterday's but I changed the icon on the front to a lovely skate. I cut the skate from silver mirri & blue card. I cuttlebugged the blue portion to give it some texture & added some detail with a dressmaker's wheel. I added titchy brads & some fine silver cord for laces. I mounted the skate onto a white circle with a scalloped shadow. I put some glue onto some paper roses then dipped them into Glamour Dust glitter. They were then adhered to the top of the circle above the skate. I added some cracked ice glitter around the circle. I cut a load of leaf branches from green card using the Auto Fill function. I keep these in a little box and I can use them whenever I want! I added a pink dotted ribbon bow, punched snowflakes (Kuretake) & sentiment to finish.
Carts used:
Skate- Joys Of The Season
White circle- George
Scalloped circle- Graphically Speaking
Happy Holidays-Ashlyn's Alphabet
Leaf branch-Stretch Your Imagination (flourish 2) cut @ 1 1/4" with Auto Fill + Flip
