DT project #3 by Minxy, Featuring:

Good day my fellow Snazzy fans, can you believe it's March already!! Where is the year going.. It will soon be Ally Pally time..wooohooo.
Today i'm back to share my final project.
I decided to make an infinity card as I hadn't made one for such a long time and it seemed more fun than a regular card, plus I get to showcase more of the wonderful Prima Engraver papers.
These cards are very simple to make and there are many tutorials out there {sorry I didn't have time for my own Utube for this one, If I get time I will try and get one done asap}
But I found a great set of instructions HERE
This is my first side:


I used the 'Arcade' sheet as it had 4 6x6 papers on the 1 sheet.
You can't really see in this pic but I coated the flowers with glossy accents.
Side 2:


Again another of the 6x6 papers with some scraps for the centre to allow the sentiment stamping.
Side 3:


Some bits left over from side 2, along with another of the 6x6's off the same sheet and i've added a little stamping with one of the Engraver cling stamps to the 4 corners.
And finally side 4:


More cling stamps used both direct to the base card and the flowers on leftover scraps.
And there you have it.. My week is complete.
I thank you kindly if you have stopped by and left a comment, Your feedback is always welcome and appreciated.
Don't forget to hop on back on Monday when the lovely Astrid will be showing more wonderful ways to use this amazing collection.
Till next time.. Stay Inky

You've done it again Minxy! Another fabulous project and can you believe I have never made one of these cards. Always intended to have a go but never got round to it. I have to say yours is the neatest most professional looking version I have personally seen and it showcases the papers again perfectly. I love the red card you've teamed the papers with too. A week of totally wonderful projects Nicky.
