Farsdagskort fra Papirfesten/ Fathersday card from Papirfesten

Da er det nok tid for å vise farsdagskortet jeg laget i forbindelse med Papirfesten jeg var på 9-11.11.12. Det ble et kjappiskort denne gangen og kanskje ikke akkurat i vanlig Bettina stil, men jeg syntes resultatet ble ganske bra jeg. Viktigst var at min far ble glad for kortet og endelig litt oppmerksomhet på farsdagen.

It is time to show what I made for fathers day when I was at Papirfesten 9.11 - 11.11.12. It was made pretty quickly this time and not quite my ordinary Bettina style, but I kinda like the result anyways. The main point is that my father was happy about the card and the attention according to fathers day.

Det var ettermiddag når jeg tok bildet og dessverre var belysningen litt dårlig, men dere får iallefall et inntrykk av det.

It was afternoon when I got to take the picture so unfortunately the light was a little dull, but you get an impression of what the card looks like.

Jeg har brukt:

hvit og brun bazill

Bo Bunny

osteklut

TH diecuts

bølgepapp/currogated cardboard

osteklut/cheesecloth

Distressed kantene/edges distressed
