Cardmaking - Card #3 - torn decorative paper background, dry embossed image and coordinating cardstock layer

This quick and easy card was our third!!  I cut the decorative paper 4.75" instead of the usual 5.25" which allowed us to tear it into two across the short side and have a swath of colour below our focal image.  The focal image combined a dry embossed image ( gift, flowers, cup and elephant) with a coordinating background of colour coordinating cardstock.  We simply added our two pieces of torn background to the card front, adhered the two elements of the focal element to each other and then added the focal element to the card front using 3D foam tape.  I added a little clear glitter with a glitter pen to the images.  I had packed the glitter pen but totally forgot to mention it when we made up the cards!!  Dah!!!  As you can see these were easily assembled as either landscape or portrait cards and with the various focal elements were appropriate for a variety of occasions!!  A wonderful way to finish off our cardmaking evening!!!
