A Bear for Karen

It's Paul's sisters birthday, and I put this together especially for her

It's an offset pyrimage set on an A5 card with matching backing papers and gold mat.

The insert matches the external of the card, however the picture is a little muzzy - sorry

Love To You Bear

I made this card to complete an order for another lady. She had just found out her friend was seriously ill and wanted something to show she was thinking about her.

The topper was from the 'Men's' CD-ROM, but the insert and backing paper were from the Floral CD-ROM in the Popcorn Bear Trilogy.

I wrapped the backing paper around a standard white DL card blank and placed the topper and corner peel offs.

Using the left over backing paper, I used my deep edge daisy cutter for the detail and then printed an insert, that was personalised with the ladies name.

I have to say, that this is my most favourite card in a long long time. The finish was great and looked like it was shop bought.

My customer was thrilled.

Fishing Bear

My friend placed an order for a few cards and this is the outcome of her first brief.

She wanted a card for her Dad.

When I asked what he liked, she said fishing.

Great I thought, I knew I'd seen something on the Men's CD-ROM that I could make work for her.

Inside, I used the deep edge daisy cutter and printer an insert from the disc to finish it off.

It seemed to be a success with my friend, lets just hope her Dad liked it too!

Green Bear

Another little card that I achieved by using the CD-ROM for Men from Popcorn Bear

This looks great in real life, the green pearlescent card stock sets off the colours in the topper beautifully.

Blue Bear

I was lucky enough to get hold of the Crafters Companion, Popcorn Bear Trilogy CD-ROM and used the 'Mens' CD to be able to achieve this simple little pyrimage card.

Although I am still trying to get my head around the correct sizes to use for the inserts I think adding them is a very worthwhile task. It give such a nice finish to the card.
