So there you have it 5 of my favourite card making DIY’s from the web. Inspired from my research and these great DIY”s I decided to create a card for a friend who is moving overseas to start her new career. I choose to use a few significant pieces to make up the card to make it be that little more special. Firstly I used a (fuzzy) Polaroid picture from our Byron Trip earlier this year, a map heart (as seen in my Garland DIY) to represent her travels, a butterfly to signify that she is finally free of her studies and a cute yellow bow to represent our friendship. Sweet or corny? I don’t know, but nevertheless I know she will love it. Here’s the final result;
Happy Card Making Day and be sure to share your creations! Becky, xo
