Medallion Cards (2)

Hi all. Oh no! The weather has gone wet and cold again. I keep myself entertained by late night card making :) This is the time when best ideas strike my head :) just exactly when you're about to go to bed! 
Here is what I've been doing for the past two days :) - more classic cards from a Papermania card making kit. Right now I'm just trying to use up my resources from this set, mostly peel-off stickers which are nicely co-ordinated in style with the included papers. The cards have that classic feel to them. 

Purple peel-off stickers are quite unusual among the dominating silver and gold ones but here they mix well with a bit of gold on a pink/brown background. I'm pleased with this colour combination. I may have a go and make another card like this, just with a different layout.



I really like this purple one. The square medallion has been heat-embossed with purple embossing powder and positioned as a diamond for a better effect. The lacey die-cut underneath has been added to give it a bit "posh"  upper class style :)



This is a small card, rather simple with an embellished panel on it. The stickers here are a mirror type and do all the "sparkly" job. 



Another card but this time with a round lacey medallion. I really like that stamp. Here the image was heat embossed in gold.



I really enjoyed making this one. I've had this nice cherry-red-blue backing papers (what an usual combination of colours) and thought a square medallion on blue would look good on it. Experimenting with half panels again.



All 4 square cards:


And all 5 together:

  2. Very, very pretty. I love "coordinating" paper & bits, especially when it's subtle. These are all elegant.
