Friendship Card

A Friendship card to let them know you're thinking of them.

Materials Used:
K&Company - Peabody Pink & Brown dots Flat Paper
Designs Galore - code P5439
White textured cardstock
2x Pink flowers
1x Mauve Medium flower
2x small satin burgundy flowers
Straw Bow
Kaisercraft Tigerlilly Collection - Freesia butterfly
Colour Box Fluid Chalk - Dark Brown

Tearing paper and inking the edges gives a bit of a old worn out look. Using bulky products like flowers or using foam tape to give a 3D effect. It creates a pop out and eye catching design.

Making cards is a great way to use up all your scrap paper and short pieces of ribbon to really personalise a card for that special someone. You'll be sure that a card like this will be kept a lot longer than the everyday cards you see. You usually can't go wrong with using a 2-3 colour scheme or monocromatics ( different hues of the same colour from light shades to dark) can look quite nice.

Enjoy LA
