NZSU Blog Challenge – Window Frame Card

29/10/2009

When I saw this technique in Jacque’s blog, I thought it was very cool. I’ve adapted mine a little bit, to make a gift card to hold a tea bag (which one of the boys’ well-deserving kindy/creche teachers might receive come Christmas!)

And all the way……

This is a very simple card, using kraft and baja breeze cardstock and Ski Slope DSP (only available for one more month, from the Spring mini-catalogue!). I used chocolate chip ink for the sentiment (from the hostess set, Best Yet), and sponged around the edges.

Give it a try!

    This is lovely Bron. Not being a tea drinker myself I can appreciate that others would like it, but you know me – I’d slot one of those thin Whittakers’ chocolate squares in there.

      Haha Steph – if I had some of those, they wouldn’t sit around long enough to make their way into the card………. 🙂

    Wow, what a great card. I love the way you have used the window frame. It adds a great focal point. I only wish I had time to join in the fun of the challenge.

    Ah Bron, you have done it again!! Love the design, and especially love cards with little “extras” in them! Well done YOU!

    You’re so clever! The window adds a neat effect and wherever did you pick up that sponging technique? hmmm? Very nice!!!
