Ideas on how to make your own cards

For this card, I just used one print from the freebies slide. A flower shaped cut out. The stem and leaves were drawn by hand. You can colour them in with either coloured pencils, felt pen, or paint. Then I added little dots around the design with a matching felt pen to add movement to the design. The lettering was first done on the computer, and sized to suit the card before printing. The lettering was then traced on to the card and written over with a matching felt pen. I attached the flower shape to the card with a gold stud in the centre of the flower shape. You could also make the flower 3 Dimensional by printing two copies of the flower shape and layering them one over the other. You would then need to mount the second one with some type of spacer like mounting tape, or silicon cement to get the petals to lift above the first layer. Very easy card to make.
