Soft & Subtle Paper Pack - Cu4cuCompleted by Gwyneth George

I took the peacock photo cup385410_33, together with one background from this kit into one of my graphics programs. I copied a small area from the bottom of the peacock's throat and tiled and resized it to greate the ribbon, frame and greetings panel for my A5 card front. After moving and resizing things until I was happy with the layout I took copies of the peacock photo and created two oval pyramage layers which I placed on the other side of the A4 working area for printing. I printed the resulting design out onto Matt Crafty Bob paper and then cut everything out. My base card was created by scoring and folding in half an A4 sheet of silver mirror cardstock. I stuck the base card front layer directly to the front of this using a glue tape runner pen and then used 1mm deep, double sided, foam tape, to attach the oval layers. I put the greeting "Penblwydd Hapus" on this card (Welsh for "Happy Birthday") but as I put the design together i can change this to any greeting required before printing out again.

The soft colours of this pack means that they will be suitable for many different types of cards as they will work with lots of different toppers.
