A few days back a close friend asked me to make her a card (that will go from her son to her husband). She asked me to use a 4"*6" photograph and its bright background for the card. I haven't ever worked on a photo card I guess, except the layout that I made for DH last year. I wanted to make something special and different for her... and I had a window card in mind...
But then I saw this card by Kavitha and did some tutorial searches... I finally came across what I really wanted on the Rubber Cafe Design Team blog. It was just what I needed.
The card's front view:
The inside:
Their favorite toys handcut and glittered with Pie Lane glitter and glitter balls :) :
PS: What's glitter doing on a masculine card, did you just ask?! Well, in India a little bit of glitter 'zaroori hota hai' (is essential...) ;-)
(oh and there are Pie Lane glitter strips peeping through too :) )

It does look much neater IRL!!
Thanks for the inspiration - Kavitha, Ujjwal (no recycling though :( ) and the Rubber Cafe.
Hugs,

ReplyDeleteWow lovely, creative project.
ReplyDeleteSUPER SUPER AWESOMELY FAB!.. LOVE the colours!.. Soo PRETTY! :D
ReplyDeleteOh would love to see all Kids crafts Smita. when using glue drops- let him peel off one layer only before sticking- stick it to the surface and then peel off the other layer -- that way your child wont have to touch the glue drop at all!
ReplyDeleteLove the card!!!
