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!

Step by Step
1
Stamp the image and greeting onto white cardstock measuring 6 x 7cm using Ancient Page Coal Black ink. Also stamp the flowers a second time. Colour with Zig Art and Graphic Twin pens and a waterbrush using the watercolour technique. Decoupage the flowers to the left of the image and use gun metal pearls to finish the flowers. Mat onto black cardstock, hand draw a border and put to one side.
2
Cover an A6 tent card (made by cutting an A5 card blank in half) with green cardstock and distress the edges using an emery board. Take pink patterned paper and trim to measure 10 x 14 cm and mat onto black cardstock. Do not stick down to the card blank as yet.
3
Trim blue patterned paper to measure 8 x 10.5cm, distress and mat onto black cardstock. Prick a border around the edge and set three brads to the right of the panel. Fix to the pink panel as shown. Cut a strip of patterned paper to measure 10.5 x 2cm and mat onto black cardstock. Stick to the pink panel as shown. Fix harlequin ribbon across the panel tying a knot to the left. Now stick to the card blank.
4
Attach the image to the front of the card as shown using 3D foam pads. Take two epoxy buttons layer and use raffia to tie through. Fix to the bottom right of the blue panel to finish.
