June Swap

Cards from my collection of text and gold examples which I made some time ago.

I punched out a circle from some ATC sized card, trying to keep it within the upper half of the card.  I then covered this card  with various text papers and some tissue paper, I added my main picture to another card and then placed  the circle over the image.  The sentiment was printed out and I tore the edges before attaching it to the lower edge of the card.

I love this lady so wanted to keep her face clear of any collage.  I placed the small scraps of text paper all round the picture.  I printed out my sentiment, tinted it with a teabag and then placed them along the lower edge.

This gentleman looked very severe to me so I used some paper from a German text book to surround him.  While I was using a blue ink pad around the edge, I managed to get some ink on my thumb and now had a blue thumb print in the lower corner.  I tore the sentiment out and used some gesso to attach it to the card.

I received these lovelies by return:

Coloured silhouettes on a pretty background.

Glittered palm tree on stencilled sunshine!!!

This black/white picture was coloured very brightly.
