The brief for this card was Patrick, 21, Aston Villa, and his cat Bella amongst other things, so I think I ticked a few boxes.

I tried to match the main colours of the Aston Villa strip to other sections of the card …..

I put very simple decoupage layers on my newspaper cards to add texture and definition and then add a touch of Ranger Glossy Accents to highlight them further.
This is what the “bones” of my A4 sheet of card look like after I have printed it, having already designed it in Publisher and then copied and pasted the sections I want to make the decoupage layers with.
No wonder you get so many orders for these - the end results are always fab.

You know Patrick will love this and it will be a keeper for sure! So creative and I'm certain he will look at it again and again....Dianne
