Cardz 4 Galz – anything but square

Hello once again. Cardz 4 Galz has started a new challenge. Helen is hosting this time, and she has chosen the theme of:

‘anything but square’

Here is my card:

I decided to go with an oval card suing nesting oval dies from Spellbinders. Using a basic A2 card base, I die cut a large oval – keeping the fold – for the actual card base.

I then used the large oval to create the brushed gold layer, then another for the white piece on top. This white piece I used an embossing folder on to create some added interest.

using even more of the nesting ovals I created a brushed gold oval frame, placed that on top of the white piece, and used that as a base shape to place all the images.

The blue roses are from Pinkfresh, one of their washi tape suites, die cut a couple of times to enable me to have plenty of flowers to play around with.

Once all the elements were attached – a mixture of glue and 3D foam pads – I added the gold sentiment and some gold gems dotted around and about.

I hope you can come and join us with your creations following our theme – anything but square. xx
