Hello Meg's Gardeners!
It's Nicole and it's my turn once again to share with you a project designed for Meg's Garden.
Last month, I created a Vintage Mini-Album using the Sherlock Book Kit. Well, this time around, I decided that I would use more papers and trinkets from the Sherlock Book Kit to create a multi-card set.
As you can see, I created 5 cards, all complementing one another in their design, patterns and colours.
I tried to use several paper patterns from the Sherlock Book kit in order to showcase it all.
Most metal accents were included in the embellishment kit that I received with the kit.
Look at the end of this post for the complete list of products used
that came from the Meg's Garden shop.
Card 1
I decided to use french sentiments on my cards as I'm participating in a craft show in December in my hometown which is mostly French and am hoping that a client will want to give this card set a new home.
Card 2
The Sherlock Book kit papers offer many vintage images that are perfect to add to cards.
Card 3
All the beautiful and colorful paper butterflies used were fussy cut
from the Butterflies ATC paper available at Meg's Garden.
Card 4
I added some handmade stitching to my cards to give them a bit more dimension.
Another way to add dimension is to pop up some parts of the card with 3-D foam dots,
like in this case, the sentiment tag and the fussy cut pocket watch.
Card 5
My favorite part of the Sherlock papers are the tags.
I used 3 of this card and added metal eyelets that matched the Vintage Brass piece.
This was a fairly short post, but I wanted show you how versatile the Sherlock Book Kit is
and let the pictures do the talking.
I hope you've enjoyed my cards
and that you will visit my blog HERE to see more of my creations.
