Papertole Cd2Completed by Karen Pimblett

I printed the backing papers and toppers onto gold dust paper, as it gives a wonderful sparkle to the finished design.

I matted and layered these onto a 8" square card.

For the ribbon to the right, I used the printed ribbon strip on one of the backing sheets, and cut smaller pieces from it. These smaller pieces, I gently folded so that the two short edges met in the middle. (These were put to the back) I then stuck these down (smallest on top of the larger piece) to make it look like a normal ribbon, and finished with sparkly gems.

I used the gems also on the jacket where the buttons were printed.
