DOCRAFTS CREATIVITY MAGAZINE ISSUE 33 MAY/JUN 2012
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!

Cut a square of green Shimmer Cardstock to measure 9.5 x 9.5 inches. Stick this onto a sheet of 12 x 12 inch cardstock.

Cut a piece of salmon Shimmer Cardstock to 5 x 12 inches. Emboss with a little swirl stamp and white embossing powder so that it creates a little strip on both sides down the length of the cardstock.

Cut two strips of brown Shimmer Cardstock of 0.5 x 12 inches and glue them on both sites of the salmon strip.

Cut two pieces of green Shimmer Cardstock measuring 0.25 x 12 inches, make little waves with a paper crimper and glue them on top of the brown strips. Embroider in long and short stitches across the strips as shown. Next add the photograph.

Cut a piece of purple Shimmer Cardstock to 1 x 12 inches, and again make little waves with the papers crimper. Glue this to the bottom of the photo.

Cut two 2 inch circles, cut them into 8 pieces and glue them next to each other to form a bunting effect on top of the purple strip as shown. Adhere a little blue shimmer dot to the point of each piece.

Cut a strip of salmon Shimmer cardstock to 0.25 x 12 inches and glue on top of the points. Embroider in long stitches and stars along the strip as shown.
