Template cards

As promised, here are a couple of pictures of the cards made using the Personal Impressions templates which are designed by Anna Stemplewska. They are really inexpensive, easy to work with and very versatile - I really enjoyed making the cards with them, asit was something a bit different and made a change from stamping! I used wire to create the cat's whiskers and added details with chalks and a fine pen, as well as brown textured card to create the stripes.
The dog template is incredibly cute! On this card I added patches of a toning decorative paper and drew stitch lines around him to give him a scruffy, but well loved appearance. The chalking is a crucial addition to really bring the chartacters to life. They are a great way of using all those bits of paper and card which we all have lots of I know!
Anyway, I hope you like them.
For anyone coming along to the Party Night at Dawn Bibby's Design Studio on Thursday, do remember to bring along your ATC's to swap. Look forward to seeing you there hopefully, Lindsay
