Petal Card

Good morning and hello to my new followers. 


I'm doing a couple of craft fairs near Christmas, so I've been playing with different types of cards. 


Over the weekend I made a petal card. I'd never heard of it before. but found the tutorial on splitcoaststampers (I LOVE this site) and had a go.


Now, this was my first attempt so I know the card is a little wonky. I know what changes I need to make for next time but thought I'd share anyway.

The finished card looks like a regular square card.

 The image is attached to a belly band. Here I have taken the belly band off  so you  can see underneath.

I have opened out the top two petals.

This is the card fully opened.


I used black cardstock and papers by My Minds Eye (I think - they are quite old and in my stash). The image is called Blissful and is by Little Claire. I have coloured her with promarkers.


So, what do you think. I'd love to know.

It's a beautiful day here and I've been busy with another card.

This is one is a little different to my normal style and I have used the free papers and ribbon that came with Cardmaking and Papercraft magazine. The felt flower is from my own stash.


The stamp is by Little Claire and coloured with promarkers.


I'm entering this card into 2 challenges.
