Triangular Base Kit Shabby Chic - Blue Roses
I wanted to design a collection of Shabby Chic kits, so that card makers could make a card that appears to have lots of embellishments, (which are really popular at the moment), without the expense of having to buy all those expensive embellishments! I think this busy style, originated in Holland, where card making is very popular, and this style of card is now becoming very popular all over the world. This card kit, features a Triangular Base Card, with matching Envelope, matching Gift Tag, a wide choice of Sentiment Labels and a Card Back Panel for your own sentiments/greetings. There are the following pages in the kit: Card Front with Gift Tag; Card Back Panel with a large choice of sentiments; Card Stand; Decoupage; Envelope Front; Envelope Back and three sheets to choose from for the version of the first layer of the Frame Decoupage. The 3 options are explained below.
My Shabby Chic Triangular Base kits, are ideal to use with your own stamps/images (Option 3), but I also provide a ready coloured Digistamp in each Shabby Chic kit (Option 2), if you want to imitate the look of a coloured stamp without having to do all the work, or if stamping or colouring, isn?t something you are in to at this time in your crafting journey! Alternatively, you can make up the card without having anything in the frame (Option 1), if you prefer. The design has been created so that all options look good!
A full Photographic PDF Tutorial is also supplied in the kit, if you would like to see it, before purchasing a kit, please click on the Mortarboard Icon, and you will be taken to where the tutorial for this kit resides in the forum.

Hi All In the Shabby Chic Collection, there are 9 Pages in the kit, but you will only need to print 7 sheets in total, to make the Triangular Base Card, the matching Envelope and the Gift Tag.
To make the card only, you will need to print 5 sheets.
It would have fit on to 4 sheets if I had included 1 of the 3 Frame options though, but if you didn't want to use that Frame option that I'd put on the Decoupage sheet, it would have meant that you would be wasting ink, and I think it's less expensive to use a sheet of paper, rather than to print out something that's not going to be used. The instructions on the first 3 pages of the Tutorial relate specifically to my Triangular Base â??
Shabby Chic Decoupage Collection and will explain which ONE of the three sheets you will need to print depending on the project you are making: Option 1 - Empty Frame sheet If you choose this option, Decoupage piece D2 will NOT need to have anything done to it prior to assembling. Choose this option if you want an Empty Frame, which looks perfectly OK as is (please see the preview below).
Alternatively, you could add your own peel off lettering in the frame, once the card is assembled. Option 2 â??
Digistamp sheet If you choose this option, Decoupage piece D2 will NOT need to have anything done to it prior to assembling. With this option you can use the Frame with the ready coloured Digistamp, provided as an optional part of the kit. â?? Option 3 â??
Use Your Own Image sheet This option can be used with your own stamped (or digistamp) and coloured image or an image of your own choosing.
It can also be used with transparent peel-off verses. (The only company I have seen who supply transparent peel-off verses is Pinflair in the UK.
Alternatively, you can print out a verse on to a coloured paper that coordinates with the design and place that behind the frame (D2). To make the card only, you will need to print 5 sheets.
It would have fit on to 4 sheets if I had included 1 of the 3 Frame options on the Decoupage sheet though, but if you didn't want to use that option of Frame, that was on the Decoupage Sheet. it would have meant that you would be wasting ink, and I think it's less expensive to use an extra sheet of paper, rather than to print out something that's not needed. My Shabby Chic collection in my range of Triangular Base kits (that I created in December last year), uses exactly the same template, and is made up in exactly the same way, itâ??s just the Decoupage Frame piece labelled D2, which requires some assembly, prior to layering it up in Option 3.
If you choose Option 1 or Option 2 then the instructions are exactly the same as my Triangular Base Cards.

 at the top so that the font matched my wording. I decoupaged all the ample pieces using sticky pads and added tiny pearls to the centre of each rose. I added crystal gems to the bottom right and finished off with a pale blue ruffle ribbon bow. I also added a ruffle ribbon bow to the matching gift tag. There is lots of decoupage with this kit, and even decoupage for the tag. This is absolutely stunning){kind=link}
I printed onto 250 gram smooth card and made up following the very easy instructions. I choose option 3 and printed my own wording behind the window. I also printed (with love) at the top so that the font matched my wording.

Printed onto heavyweight matte photo paper and made up the base card following the simple instructions.I used 3d foam to add the frame layer and sentiment,glue gel for the other decoupage elements and to give shape to the butterflies and embellished with pearls and co-ordinating bow.I love the idea of having so many options to choose from...it makes this gorgeous kit great value for money!
