A Real Cheat Of A Card

I don’t think this card really counts …… I needed a card quickly, but I didn’t really have time to make one completely from scratch, however, I did have some 5 for £1 cards from Card Factory ………..
Left as it was the card looked a little forlorn and a bit 20p-ish, so I decided that I had just about enough time to let some glue dry on a few iridescent flat back and tiny gold confetti stars ……. et voila!  It looks, I hope like I did make some sort of an effort.
Now ……. if I were to do it all again, with more time, I think I might photocopy the sentiment, cut it out and mat and layer it on silver mirror card and then stick it onto the card with a few foam pads for extra depth and dimension …… and then add the stars.  Perhaps a little iridescent micro glitter wouldn’t go a miss on the “especially” either.
I really don’t like to cheat, but I think I may have got away with it this time.

  1. I don't think it's a cheat at all. You dressed up that card nicely, and I'm certain the recipient appreciated it.

Thank you for wanting to leave a comment. I HATE verification and apologise for the extra bother it causes, however, if I don't have it I get all sorts of dubious spam added and the comments would be bogged down utter ***p!

Occasionally I get comments on posts from several years ago, again, I have to apologise, copies of TEMPLATES etc. that I once offered are now NO LONGER AVAILABLE, when my last computer died, I lost everything and decided not to replace any them.
