For our second card I decided to feature corrugated paper. I chose a kraft piece and made six pieces out of it. I tore the first two and found it a bit difficult to managed so I used my wavy cutter to make the last two cuts. Worked out well!! I chose some card fronts and added coordinating backgrounds. I assembled my corrugated element next. I added the ribbon securing the ends on the back using double sided tape and then added the three gold brads. I embossed and trimmed the decorative strips and overlapped them a bit before gluing them together. I slipped them under the ribbon and secured them to the corrugated with double sided tape. The little inchies (SU) were all gold embossed - several with greetings and images and some with only an image which are the two I used - a little owl and tiled pattern. The contrast on the images was better before I coloured them but colouring them added a bit of colour to the card. It would have worked either way. The gold embossing nicely echoes the gold of the brads. Another greetingless card which can be used for a variety of occasions.
