Round Easel Card - Little Elf Finn

I love making round easel cards but the scalloped ones are a devil to cover and do the photography on, I got in from work and quickly got dinner over with so that I could get cracking on this one.

You may notice the bow on the top of the card, this is a triple bow, made in the same way as my double bow tutorial but wrapped and extra time around the fingers.

The image is coloured with Copic markers and the snowflake is a Cuttlebug die and embossing folder I cut one in gold card and the other in acetate then used Glass glitter glue on the acetate one.

I also did the sin of all sins and used some peel off borders and snowflake accents around the bottom layer of the card.

Double Layout with Serif Craft Artist

I was asked by a friend on the giveaway post if the Serif Craft Artist allows you to make a double page layout in the scrapbook section and of course I wanted to give out the correct information so here is the proof of the pudding.

Click on the image for a larger size.

I have to say that this is one of the most additive programs, I just can’t leave it alone, there is so much included,  don’t forget that I have one of these to give away to some lucky lucky person Click here for the giveaway post.

All of the elements are separate so that you can mix and match but there are even ready made projects so you can use them too. I also thought this could be a neat way of designing your scrapbook layout before making an actual page. Feel free to case the layouts that I have used for your own projects. The image on the left is Granda Chris holding Jack’s hand, I love that photo.

Here is my quick layouts.


The first is my Daughter Wedding everything you see is added bits from the background to frames and ribbons to embellishments, you can even change the colours of the all of the pieces just by the touch of a button.

The second layout is of Grandson Jack I changed the colour of the photo, added faux stitching down the side, his name and added buttons ribbons, butterflies and much more.
