It is my turn again at Meg's Garden so here is my latest DT project.
I have a card to share made with the new 'Correspondence' papers designed by Kerry-Jean Watson. I was very privileged to be one of the first to have the opportunity to use these papers. They are so pretty and a real dream to work with.
The papers I've used on this card are all from the mini paper pack and the only alterations I've made is to distress the edges and add a little doodling.
Did some stitching around the edge and added some stamens and small twigs between the layers. I've also added a few pearls here and there. The metal heart was recycled from an old necklace that was no longer being used by it's owner and I was lucky enough to be given some of the pieces.
The flowers are mainly from Kaisercraft except for the berries which are from my stash. The gem spray is from Magnolia Ink.
The wreath is the Memory Box Bramble Circle Die and the small sprigs were punched with Martha Stewart's Autumn Branch Punch. In the lower left corner you can see I've added a few Micro Beads. The greeting was printed on my computer and simply matted on some cardstock.
The inside was decorated with some strips of the paper which was border punched with M.S. Doily Lace Punch ...
... and here is the full frontal!!!
As I said at the beginning of this post, I was very privileged to be one of the first to use these papers and I thoroughly enjoyed creating with them. I know for sure that I will be making many more projects with these lovely papers.
Thank you so much for visiting the blog today and do take a minute to check out all the gorgeous products Meg's Garden has to offer. Believe me, you won't be sorry. HERE is the link.
Take care and God Bless.

ReplyDeleteSuch an awesome anniversary card it is. My mom loves DIY crafts and hosting loads of parties. In fact no DIY bash of her is ever complete without the chic handmade invites. At one of the nearby event venues she would host the Christmas Eve party so is recently working on the DIY invites. They are so pretty.
