Inside and out


Inside and Out
Hi everyone Gillian here, and it's my turn to dare you all this week
I dare you to take the design of your card to the inside as well as the outside.
Add a little finishing touch to match the theme on the outside,or Surprise the receiver with a flap, foldout, decorated journal block to write on,or one of those pop-out delights....It really adds so much to a card when there is attention to detail on the insideas well as the outside. I know some of you are finished your Christmas cards alreadyso this week it's Any theme, Christmas or notBut make the inside count too :)
When I saw this dare I immediately thought of this card that I made at a class with Vanessa at a Authors and Artists craft day sometime last year, sorry I don't know her last name. I made quite a few last year as Wedding cards. The papers are Chatterbox, the flower word is stampin up and the tag stamps are stamp away from Clevercut. Velums, brads and flowers all out of my stash.
I'm in the doghouse, made a card specially for Mum and Dad and the kids so who did I forget. Hubby gave me a Christmas card last, whoops now I've got to unpack the Christmas papers which I thought I had put away for another year. I given up trying to scrapbook this weekend.
