Art Deco Box Frame Card

Just a really quick post today.

This is another card from the Art Deco range from Docrafts. The picture nestles in a dropped frame within the card. I forgot to photograph the box I made to go with it.............at least I forgot to photograph the box before I sat on it!!! Yep............I did it!!!  Not to worry the main thing I wanted to show you was the card itself!

Happy Crafting Everyone :)

Art Deco Boxed Window Card

Well I am working away on a huge commission at the moment all my demos and my classes so with a crippled laptop (it only works when it feels like it) it has become a bit of a challange to get a blog post up!

Today's project was one I was showing in my November December demos for Docrafts. It's been a few years since I made one of these cards and I honestly can't understand why............I love them. I think maybe I didn't make this card in a while because until last year I couldn't make a box to save my life and now I make them all the time!!

This is a stunning card for the receiver or you could use it so that when the card is lifted out  a gift card is nestled in the tissue paper.

Art Deco Pop up Card

Well I have been away from the blog for a couple of weeks now as my laptop is a sick little puppy. I have a horrible feeling that I may have to get a new one at some stage in the near future!!!! After taking off a heap of stuff the laptop and putting it on an external hard drive it is finally letting me do a post, but oh boy it is taking ages!

For Christmas my fab hubby bought me an IPad and I have been able to roam the internet but have been unable to do any blog posts! I tried to do some housekeeping on the blog with the IPad and managed to delete about 100 lovely comments left on my different blog posts. I was actually trying to delete all the spam that arrives on the blog every day.. So I am sending out a massive apology to everyone who took the time to make a comment on the various blog posts. I promise I have learned my lesson and will double check everything before I touch the delete button again!!! 

So today I thought I wiould show you one of the pop up cards I made from the gorgeous Art Deco range from DoCrafts. I will be showing quite a few cards made with this range on the blog as I just loved working with all the images.  This card contains 2 pop up mechnisims. Its lovley and luxourious on the ouside and when you open it up both the images and the greetings pop up and stand.

Well I hope you like it. Happy crafting everyone :)
