New Horizon (5)

 I hope you find some inspiration for the New Horizon paper if you have any.

This mini series may help if you have other scenic papers too.

This one looks like you need two sheets of the same paper,

but it is just one sheet....

Die cut a panel from the centre, then mount onto contrasting card stock,

you then place that onto the base card over the remaining sheet,

so it hides where you "gutted" it from.

Initially I left it there........

Then decided to use this image from Beautiful Moments, which I stamped, coloured and fussy cut.

Enjoy your day

On The Horizon take four

 Sorry I'm back again with those papers :)

An almost full sheet again, so square, but this time I stamped some wading birds.

The pape does all the work again, but I did add some reflection under the waders

I then sponged a circle to make a sun, backed with some twine.

Above you can see I used orange and yellow on the circle,

and I added a strip of paper on the inside right.

The card blank had a fancy design down the right hand side, so I trimmed it off.

Have a good day

New Horizons take three

 Hello again

Today is a square card, showing another way of using a quarter of a 6" x 6" design

I can see how different the light affects photos, as the one below doesn't look the same colour!

The fence this time is cut from sahara sand, and two layers of grass add depth.

The knot was an idea from Cary of http://2biggirlscrafting.blogspot.com/

Do go visit as Cary and Gill have loads of inspiration.

Living in the countryside we often see gates tied with string :)

A bit of stamping on the card base adds a bit more interest,

and obviously a couple of pebbles snuck in :) :) :)

Enjoy your day

New Horizons take two

 Another New Horizons paper........

this time a white fence stamped with the wood planks stamp, to give the effect of textured wood.

A basic fold matted onto dark blue card.

The grass die is almost as fabulous as the fence- it's layered to give depth here.

A few of my fave pebbles scattered, and a small flock of birds........

the paper does all the rest!

New Horizons

Hello

I hope all is well in your world....if not, maybe you can escape here for a  minute at least.

I just adore the New Horizon paper, it's 6" x 6", has so many gorgeous designs,

and it's a shame it won't be available much longer.

This is my favourite design.......so I just cut snippets off to make a square gate fold.

The fence was die cut from soft suede, and do you see those pebbles?......

I had to have a few packs of those!.........My favourite product, possibly ever!

The papers are so awesome, some need no decoration at all.

Enjoy your weekend

Simples

 Hi there, a very quick, simple card today, and a great way of using up your pretty paper stash.

I’ve just found out there’s Maypole dancing taking place in the 

Snippets Playground, so I’ll be skipping over there to enter the new challenge with a fab prize.

A strip of paper, on a strip of black, tie ribbon around it, add a sentiment,

and mount it onto a blank card, simples!
