Mini bauble cards and a fabulous freebie!

I have a couple of mini cards to share with you today which I made with the fabulous freebie which is available on the very talented Wendy Colledge's blog.

For the first card, I cut a scalloped circle card and used a red spotty backing paper from the Cosmo Cricket Mitten Weather stack and first printed the bauble on to a piece of printer paper. I then held the paper up to the light with a piece of patterned paper over it so I could see the outlines and make sure the pattern was centered on the bauble. I then stuck this in place and ran it back through the printer. I printed the bauble on card and then paper pieced the bauble on to the image. I finished with a mini stamped tag tied with twine and added a button, both from the Ribbon Girl.
For the second card, I used table scatter I bought from Tesco's to make a flocked pattern on the image of the bauble. I ran them through my Xyron sticker maker to make them sticky and then added them to a bauble which I had coloured with Promarkers. I finished with gems and another mini tag tied with twine.
I hope you have a great Sunday, ours is a quiet one catching up on some chores and watching a bit of TV and reading the papers :-)
