These are 3 bumper cars one is slightly bigger than 2", On my Gypsy I altered the other two. The one on the right is slightly smaller and narrower width, and the one in the lower left corner is angled a little forward to slant it. I also "hid" the extra details of each cut because I did not want the number 7 on each of them. The "Happy Birthday" were extra cuts I did when I made cards with pretty holographic scrap paper. I figure its easy enough to cut extra pieces of useful phrases & test cuts while I've got everything sitting out & in progress. It saves rushing last minute style sometimes.
I had to tip the cards to show the pretty shine the silver contact paper gives, the cards are normal 4x6 proportions, just pre-made Recollections brand blank cards & envelopes.
The border trims are scrap Basic Grey brand paper.
I added the black seat detail, edged the bumper cars with black sharpie and hand wrote the numbers, no particular meaning. I think they turned out pretty well.
Oh! Love your carousel! The silver contact paper looks amazing-- I will have to look for that!
ReplyDeleteOMG - that's amazing. Dumb question...what's silver contact paper and where can I get some?

Thanks! Silver "Con-Tact Brand" paper is adhesive shelf liner. I find it at Home Depot and Canadian Tire. It cuts like butter and it is as easy as vinyl to use. Try it & let me know how you like it!
