For my first card, I started with a yellow card base and found a coordinating decorative paper background. I trimmed out a piece and turned it over to highlight the back of the paper which features script. I layered this strip to piece of blue green cardstock which I trimmed with scallop scissors and then added paper piercing with a push pin. I dug some coordinating fiber from my stash and tied it to the strip and then adhered all the pieces to the front of my card. I watercoloured the rattle (Cre8tive Hands) and layered it with salmon cardstock before adding it to the front of my card using 3D foam tape.
For my next card I started with a brown card and added a pieced background to which I had added a length of yellow satin ribbon. I tied on a short length on the right hand side to simulate a bow. I watercoloured the little giraffe (Cre8tive Hands), added some paper piercing for texture and then layered it onto a rectangle of decorative paper before adding this focal element to my card using 3D foam tape.
