Welcome
I trust you are all well - New Zealand is on the verge of a complete, at this point four week, lock down, starting Wednesday. Due to my age, and my old friend asthma, I was self isolating, starting this week - now it is required of me - a bit scary, especially as it means I see very little of my family, and I am really going to miss that as we are close, both geographically and emotionally.
This card was made for a small Kiwi group I am in that swaps a card a month, made to a challenge one of the members sets. This month the challenge was to make a card with a recessed panel.
I used some paper from the Kaiserkraft pad Summer Splash for the recessed panel, and added some silver glitter paper, cut with my very old wavy edged scissors, to the edges of the recessed area.
I also embossed the top layer with an unmarked circles embossing folder - no, not from China, I just didn't keep the packaging or mark the folder :). I used the circles and the wavy edge to accentuate the sea theme of the paper.
The feature at the tip of the recess is a couple of toppers from the pad, some bakers twine and ribbon from my stash, and partially held together with a white brad.
The sentiment was also a topper, and all the toppers were liberally winked with a clear WoS pen..
The inside was finished with a narrow strip of the patterned paper.
