A metallic card…

Hi friends!

How are you all? It’s been a week since I posted anything… Didn’t do anything much… didn’t feel like doing actually…guess I needed a break!

I’m here with a card I made last night… I had die cut the flowers first and then painted them with metallic shades of fabric paint and then gave them a crumpled look using a small forceps… got this idea from Hussena…She used this in a tutorial of hers. I’m so sorry I couldn’t locate the exact post… I did search her blog and got side tracked for a while looking at her gorgeous creations!

Here’s my card. Didn’t at all like the glitter on it…Shouldn’t have made that border with glitter. I wanted a subtle look on my card but lost it because of the glitter ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

This is a orange metallic card…

The shades are visible here…

So, do tell me what you feel about my card ๐Ÿ™‚

  1. The shiny metallic paper is a gorgeous backdrop to your flowers and I think the glitter goes perfectly well with the design! Good to see you are crafting with a forceps..I have a self retaining forceps which is my most cherished tool I cant craft without it!!
    Here is a tutorial in which I use the forceps:http://cardsandschoolprojects.blogspot.in/2012/04/paper-flower-tutorial-easy-daisy.html

  2. I really like your base card stock.. The glitter is a bit overwhelming but nevertheless… If you could have gone with a even more cleaner look, the CS would have shone along with the flowers… My opinion but still a great card!
