Sailing into the new year with Belinda

Hello Dear Reader

Happy New Year!

Here you will find the step out photos I took as I was making this Bon Voyage card for a friend as well as an explanation under each photo

Take a 6"x12" piece of card and using the width of your ruler or  1 3/8" cut from 3 inches on the left to 1 inch from the right (11 inch mark) with your paper horizontal as above.  

Then score the width of the paper that is above the ruler at the 3", 6", 10" and 1" marks and fold in a concertina fashion to make the card below.  You will then be able to fold the cut  skinny strip in the middle (6" mark)

I cut the base of the 6" x 6" paper till Lady V's boot at 1" from the bottom and fussy cut up her body till her shoulder and then cut the width of the ruler to the top of the paper.

After gluing her on, I then fussy cut the rest of the deck out and realised that I could see a lot of dark paper on the left, so I used the Allecgro Earth and Cappuccino to paint a fake deck.

I needed a bigger piece of sky than I had left after fussy cutting out the deck, so I cut a piece out of an 8"x8" sheet

I glued this at the back of the card and found my clear die cut airship as well as the words from the Collectables sheet in Voyages Fantastique's.

At this stage the airship is not glued to the base, but I did add glue (Fluid Gloss) to the top half sticking out of the paper and glued the left over 6"x6" sky to the back of it... upside down...

and fussy cut around the airship

I then glued the airship to the pack piece and added the words "Adventure is Waiting"
