altered playing card

This was a first, I've seen them before and love the end result.

To be honest, I didn't do much with mine as I had chosen to do a quote card.

standard size playing card

'Beautiful Words 1' Gecko Galz

doily

2 butterfly die cuts Tattered Lace Mini

stick on flower

gem

red & blue pigment ink

silver gel pen

I resized the image form the design sheet and printed it out. The playing card edges were inked using a foam square and Christmas Red pigment ink, I then pushed the edges into Royal Blue pigment ink and gave it a quick rub with the foam to blend the colours a bit. I left some of the red pattern on the playing card showing.

I stuck the image onto the card and then found a bit of doily, butterfly and flower to cover over  the corresponding images. Lastly I edged the letters with a silver gel pen too make them stand out more.
