Card for 'Dad'Bazzill Dotted Swiss Card

Here is a card using the new Bazzill Dotted Swiss Card- Rose-Anne has some beautiful colours in this range.


Recipe:
Bazzill textured card stock (brown)
Bazzill Dotted Swiss card stock (new - 2 greens)Buttons
Dimensional Magic
Cuttlebug Alphabet - Olivet
A2 Cuttlebug Embossing Folder - Tiny Mosaic


Method:
Cut your brown Bazzill to the desired size
Cut your a pieces of Bazzill green smaller than the brown
Cut your 2nd piece of green smaller than the other green
Cut a diamond (mine is 5cm square)Adhere the card pieces in order
Run a scrap of brown card through your Cuttlebug and cut the letters you need
Now carefully place the letters inside your Cuttlebug folder and emboss
Attach your letters to the diamond (I used my Xyron to add adhesive to the letters)
Carefully cover the letters in Dimensional Magic
Use a dot of Dimensional Magic in each corner of the light green Bazzill and drop a button onto each dot.


Tips:
Dimensional Magic doubles well as a glue for this type of project.Bazzill Dotted Swiss card is wonderful and I will be using some more soon.
Male themed cards don't have to be difficult to do. Check out some card sketches/maps and use appropriate colours and you will come up with some great cards.
Don't forget to use the Internet for poems, sayings etc.
You could print a quote out and distress it with ink or chalk around the edges and then layer it on some card and use dots under it to give it dimension.

You can buy all the products for this card from Rose-Anne at Cropworks.
