Hello everyone! I'm here today to share one of my shabby chic cards. I love to mix different textures on my cards to add softness and shabbiness.
Materials used:
card stock
patterned paper
needle and thread (or sewing machine)
lace
glitter glue
pearls
fabric flowers
I began by cutting a sheet of card stock in half and folding the half in half to form a card. I'm not big on measurements which makes my crafting even more fun! Then I cut a piece of patterned paper to fit the card front and then a mat out of coordinating paper just a bit smaller than the first piece.
To add a special touch, I sewed around the edges of the patterned paper. I love the way that looks!
I use my scissors to distress the edges of the paper to give them softer edges.
I used the Helmar Premium Craft Glue to adhere the paper to the card and to add lace and other embellishments.
The Helmar Gemstone Glue is perfect for adding pearls!
I fussy cut these adorable butterflies from the paper pad and covered them with glitter glue and used Helmar Liquid Scrap Dots to pop them up on the card.
I love this pretty little card with all of its special details. I hope you like it too!
