Faerie Poppets Yellow Rose Card

Evening everyone

Today I am going to share a card I made for a friend's birthday using Faerie Poppets die cut decoupage.  This is another card I managed to do while preparing everything for Easter but didn't get it into the post in time for my friend's birthday which was on Easter Monday!

The card base was seven inches square and made from white Centura Pearl from Crafters Companion.  The yellow die cut borders and central die cut and embossed oval was made using Cordinations card, the central white embossed oval and the die cut swirls were  made from Centura Pearl.  The yellow rose backing paper was a piece I had printed on vellum some time ago from one of my crafting cds but I can't for the life of me remember which one - though it is probably one of Joanna Sheen's- and the little roses and white bow were from my stash.  And of course the gorgeous fairy decoupage was from the "Faerie Poppets" set from Crafters Companion.

Here is the insert.

I made the insert in Craft Artist Professional using my Sharon Duncan Embossibilities cd for the yellow rose backing paper.  I took a photograph of the front of the card and cut out the faerie poppet image from the photograph, and also the two little groups of roses.  I used the colour picker in Craft Artist to take one of the colours from the backing paper and used it to fill the two central squares, then added the text.
