A change of colour scheme for today;s card however it was made using the other 2 dies in the set i used yesterday, theres one for value a soft pastel and a strong masculine card just from the corner and border set from the Indian Ocean collection.
I started this card by cutting the square edged corner die 4 times in ginger foundation card. I then matted this using the outline die, in Kraft card and mounted them together to form the Art Deco squire in the centre finished with an 8mm black pearl. There are 2 corners in the set and this one, just like the border dei, makes a different shape when they are mounted together.
For the corners I simply reversed the process and cut the detail in Kraft and the backing in ginger.
to make up the card I used the double pierced square dies ( the original set or Set A as it has been nicknamed) to take the frames in ginger and Kraft. I mounted the corners at the edge of the square kraft frame. I cut the corners off the square so that the detail of the die cut corners comes to the fore!
Enjoy...

Eh up John
ReplyDeleteFantastic card for a fella. The white on the ribbon does jar a little for me with no other white on the card but the Art Deco design and ginger card are an amazing combo.I don't usually like Kraft card but here it fits in perfectly.
When I saw the title, I thought Charlie from Hochanda was making a guest appearance lol!

ReplyDeleteHi John,
ReplyDeleteFab card for the males, I like the colours and think they would work equally well with a dark blue b/ground.

Good morning John very interesting card though I probably would have left the ribbon off or just had black. Great idea though love from Jackie xx
ReplyDeleteHi John, a great Art Deco card, and one I would certainly use for our male friends.
ReplyDeleteWendyx
Very Art Deco! Love the colours. Agree with others that the bow is superfluous. The rest of the card is enough and very nice.
