This issue we feature a delightful collection from Lucy Cromwell by Papermania, off ering all the cups of tea, cake and bunting you will need to set the scene. And just to prove how versatile this range is, you can also find it in our ‘Wedding Special’ feature and used to make a Father’s Day card in our ‘make a Father’s Day card’ challenge! Our ‘Wedding Special’ feature also includes jewellery for the bride and a charming idea to hold onto those precious memories of the big day!

Step by Step

1

Cut a piece of the cream handmade paper to 10.5cm by 15cm. Stick to the inside of the card using the glue stick.

2

Using the black ink, stamp the largest tag stamp in the centre of your card. Stamp the image again on some scrap paper and cut out to create a 'mask'.

3

Position the mask over the stamped tag (secure with a little masking tape) stamp whole of the left hand side of the card using the script stamp from the Tropicals set, ensuring you overlap the mask a little.

4

Cut off the right hand side of the front of the card blank, cutting around the tag shape.

5

Stamp the dogs head stamp on some spare white card. Cut out. Use the chalk and colouring pencils to add colour to the card front and the dogs head. Refer to the picure for colouring guidance.

6

Mount the dogs head on 3D foam onto the tag, Add a 'On Your' outline sticker greeting below.

7

Remove the leather strip from a piece of the brown leather sticky ribbon. Cut an 8cm length and stick to the card front. Take two more pieces measuring 7cm and 12 cm, knot together and stick inside the card, position so that the strips of leather appear to meet when looking at the front of the card. Fold the ends of the ribbon over to give a neat finish.

8

Add letter tiles to the inside of the card to read Birthday on the left hand side.
