Talk of the town...
There are quite a few phone images available to cut from various carts, in various stylies, but this has got to be one of the most elegant! I had real trouble with this baby! It should have been cut with a filagree pattern but my Big Bug chewed it to blazes! These filagree cuts just HAVE to be cut larger than 3 1/2" otherwise you don't have a snowball in hell's chance of getting them off the mat! So after numerous tries and much wasted glittercard :( , I went with the solid version instead. I have to say I prefer it! I cut the phone from aqua glittercard and then added a dial (cut from another phone image) and a large blue gem. I mounted the phone onto a diamond mat which was then adhered with foam pads onto a larger panel decorated with different width strips of patterned paper (that 6x6 pad again) over an embossed white panel. I added 'Talk of the town' cut from glittercard in the space below the phone and a ribbon, bow and bloom to the strip of aqua paper. Adhesive pearls finish the front. The inside was decorated with another diamond mat and a punched border.
Carts used:
