The Other Double Gap Card

This time I chose a hot pink and lime theme - I really like these two colours together. Again I used glitter glue for some sparkle and this card has self-adhesive crystals in the centre of the little daisies for even more sparkle!

Double Gap Card

This is for a 'Gap' card swap on my card group. I had to make two gap cards - I usually do two the same but have done different ones this time so will post the other one tomorrow.

I decided to do something a little different so made two gaps! I used two Elegant rectangles and stuck to a black and lime colour scheme. The picture perhaps doesn't show this but I added glitter glue to the Card Candy for a little sparkle.

Lime and Liquorice Again

Unfortunately the colours on this have not scanned very well - it does look much better in real life.

I've used a black Elegant Rectangle as the base card. The squares are paper from the Carnival and the Glitz and Glamour collection. I punched some little daisies from matching black card and used self-adhesive gems in the centre of them. The scalloped circle was punched with a Stampin Up' Punch , the black circle was punched with my new 1 3/8" circle punch and the the Happy Birthday is an In Circle Message

Lime and Liquorice

The idea for this came from a card I saw on Julie Hickey's blog. I love using squares but usually don't leave a border round the edge.

The papers are from the Glitz and Glamour collection and the Carnival collection. The butterflies were punched using a Martha Stewart punch and the scalloped oval with a Stampin' Up punch. The greeting in the centre is an oval message. Needless to say everything I used is from Craftwork Cards.

And again....

Here is yet another gap card mad with Elegant Rectangles. I love the combination of orange and lime. The striped paper is from the Glitz and Glamour collection, the lime paper is from the Carnival collection and the scalloped circle was cut with a Stampin' Up punch and is finished off with an In Circle messag. The flowers are from my Flower Store and have Card Candy centres embellished with glitter glue.

All paper and card is from Craftwork Cards - there's a surprise!!

And again.....

Another gap card but this time I used Beautiful Butterflies to fill the gap. The back of the card is a lime Elegant Rectangle and the front is a Hot Pink one. The striped paper is from the Glitz and Glamour collection and the lime foiled paper is from the Carnival collection. I punched the scalloped circle with a Stampin' Up punch and added an In Circle message to the centre. The card was finished off with three pieces of hot pink Card Candy down the left hand side.

Elegant Rectangles are my favourite Craftwork Cards product at the moment.

Another Gap Card

Here is another gap card. This time I have used a hot pink Elegant Rectangle for the back of the card and a lime one for the front. The striped paper is from the Glitz and Glamour collection and the pink foiled paper is from the Carnival collection. The flowers were from my Flower Store and I punched the butterfly and scalloped circle from matching lime card. The circle was finished off with an In Circle message and the flowers were finished off with pink Card Candy covered in glitter glue.

It goes without saying that everything used was from Craftwork Cards apart from the butterfly punch (Martha Stewart) and the scalloped circle punch (Stampin' Up).

Gap Card

Here is a 'Gap' card that I have made for a swap on my card group. This type of card was thought up by Julie Hickey and Paula Pascual and it really is lovely. The idea is to cut out a section of card to create a gap. This is then joined using die cut flowers or other embellishments.

I used two Elegant Rectangles as my base card and decorated the front one with spotted paper from the Glitz and Glamour collection and lime paper from the Carnival collection. I used matching flowers to fill the gap and added lime Card Candy embellished with glitter glue to the the centre of each. The scalloped oval was puched from the section of card that I cut out to create the gap and a I added an Oval Message to the centreof it.
