Day 2: Make it a feature!!
by vickstar Tue Dec 08, 2009 1:00 am
Normally the background of a card is just that, the background, but with these cards we are going to make the background a feature of the card!! 
I used my best friend google for these ones again today. I looked up the lyrics for christmas carols, copied them into my word program, then played around with the font style and size until i had it all just how i wanted it, then i printed it onto cardstock and stuck it to the front of the card. I then ran my ink pad around the edges to make the text stand out more, and stuck on a matching embellie!! If you only have the basic fonts on your computer, you can download more at http://www.dafont.com/
Here are my examples:
(Sorry about the crappy photo of this one, it was getting a bit late!! )
For anybody with a cuttlebug or another embossing machine and some embossing folders with words on them, you can do these cards with that as well. Here is my example:
Be sure to upload your pictures into the 7 cards in 7 Days folder in the Dec monthly gallery folder by Monday 21st Dec and please clearly mark your card with your name and which day the card is for!!
Have fun!!
