CTMH Technique Blog Hop - Creative with Cards

Let's talk TECHNIQUES! This month our group of talented consultants are showing you different ways to use the Picture My Life cards that can be ordered in a pack or that come with one of our Creative Collections paper packs.

Since this is a hop it's one big circle of ideas! I hope you enjoyed the inspiration from
Darlys Recker. Just click the link at the end of each post to
continue along on the hop.

I already had the Gimme Some Sugar paper pack on my desk so I decided that was a good place to start! I selected the PML Card with the floral spray and trimmed it down to fit a standard card front with a mat. With a craft knife I cut some slits in various parts of the design so I could lift that part a bit with foam tape. It give a bit of dimension and makes for some eye candy.  I also used a journal pen to doodle around the edge. Finally I used Shimmer Brushes to give it some sparkle on the flowers.
