photo card

9.10.2008

this photo card was inspired by this at scarlet lime. it's called all things beautiful. well, i modified it quite a bit. used the folded card element. even used the front patterned paper from making memories. as well as implemented the pockets in the top middle part.
the card is for my mother in law, who's birthday was last week...and she loved it. i am always so gratified when she loves one of my creations as she has done elegant crafting work for many years and i am so very novice compared to her.
i used some american craft thicker letters that worked wonderfully with the colors. i simply scalloped some patterned paper for the photo mats. the photo themselves have a glow distort action on them that is very easy to use in pse. you can see the tutorial link on my side bar. love what it does to pictures. if any of you know of some other actions out there you can use on pse please let me know.

you can see the little tags peaking on the top. each of us had a tag that we wrote a birthday greeting on. i should have taken some shots of the tags. used some mm journaling papers as well as ribbons and buttons to embellish. it all just turned out very sweet.


added mm enamel brad, and used the infamous martha steward butterfly punch with some patterned paper.


had to keep the boys kind of manly so used some mm die cut paper in green to frame seth's photo.

have to say this is so much more beautiful in real life...hope the photos lend themselves to inspire nevertheless.

enjoy your day...
