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:


Thanks for popping by and sharing your thoughts x x
Have a good evening. x

Medallion Cards

Yesterday was busy for me as far as the cardmaking is concerned. I made quite a few new cards and among them there were these three medallion cards with a sorta classic flair. The papers and the peel-off stickers come from my old card making set by Papermania. I've had it boxed and stashed away for months somewhere between the boxes with stamps and sheets of scrapbooking papers and forgot about it. Time to dig it out!







Basically, these cards are way away from my usual card making style as I don't make many classic cards and I don't use the peel-off stickers so generously but sometimes a change in style is good and I like to diverge from my usual tendencies. Just for a change and for fun! :)
