These are my two cards for my exchange partner for this month. I have seen quite a few cards online with light bulbs and when I found a great image on Beyond The Fringe Crafts I downloaded and used it for these cards. I sized the images for large cards and printed them on white cardstock. I fussy cut them, watercoloured them and the bulbs a coat of clear dimensional paint. I used two larger kraft cards which have coordinating envelopes for my card bases. I added some fabric paper which I had on my desk since creating cards for Father's Day. I added embossed borders to each of them - one on the bottom and a rick rack border to the other one. I added a row of machine stitching to the edges and then mounted them to my card fronts. Once they were dry, I added the light bulbs with 3D foam tape. I did add some words to the digital I downloaded. There are so many great saying out there so I just chose two that spoke to me. They are on their way to my partners in this week's mail. Therese
