MORE HOMEWORK FOR ALTENEW ACADEMY

Have two more cards for the Progressive Cardmaking 2 class.  


The top card is from day 2 where Justine used an origami folded square made from patterned paper.  After several tries I finally was able to make a decent little folded square.  I had to find my thinnest paper as heavier ones just cracked or I had really hard time getting the fold straight.  I used a circle cover plate to give some texture to the background.  Will add a sentiment when I decide who will receive it.

Day 3 was all about embossing folders.  I used a favorite - Beautiful Berginia - on black cs. Then I brushed gold Perfect Pearls over the surface, trimmed the piece to 3"x4.25 and mounted on the card base with foam tape.  Added the little sentiment and done.

Thanks for dropping by today.

  5. What a neat element for the first card--gotta try it! Stunning black card with the gold perfect pearls, Betty. Do you have to spray the panel to fix it?
