Perfect Partners

Today I thought I would show a very simple card that I made using two totally different products which, as it turned out, work perfectly together.

Firstly, the backing pape.r is from Floral Fantasies at Bearly Mine. On this occasion I imported the sheet of paper in to my Serif Craft Artist and resized it to just under 6x6 square.

This is the really great thing about Digi papers as one of my bug bears is that you can buy a gorgeous paper but the pattern is just too big and overwhelming to use on a card. With digi papers you can print in the preset sizes on your computer or, size things precisely using Serif or something similar and all of the patterns are scaled down.....perfection!

Next I delved through my Flower Fairies Garden Fairies CD from Crafters Companion, and came across Candy Tuft who, I thought, would go nicely with my paper. I think shereally looks like she belongs there and she is decoupaged to so, in real life she is lifted from the page.

I hope you like my little offering for today

Bye for now.
