How to Print Sentiment onto the Frame using a printer

....

Create your Sentiment using a word document programme

or in this case I used Print Shop 22.

Measure the required size to fit the frame.

For this card I used

2 1/2 inch W x 2 inch D text box.

I typed the sentiment then printed it onto an A4 sheet of paper.

Adhere the frame over the printed words. ( I used low tac double

sided tape for this process so it is easy to remove the frame from the A4 sheet.)

Use a light box or other light source to check the alignment

of the print before placing theA4 sheet back into the printer.

Once you are happy with the alignment place the A 4

sheet of paper back into the printer and click print.

Remove the frame from the sheet of paper.

This process can be used to print words or sentiments on any

size or shape of card you require by adjusting the print size as required.

eCraft by Craftwell

To make this card I used the eCraft machine and the ecraftShop Pro computer programm. The image of the sailboat was in the font file on my computer. Not sure were I downloaded it from. To make the cut I placed the shape onto the virtual mat on the computer screen and adjusted the size to fit the card. I cut the sail boat two times (pink and orange coloured paper). Then I used the Shadow/blackout feature and cut out the image using black cardstock. I also cut the image out on white card stock using the shadow/blackout feature. I trimmed around the black cut-out to use as the base of the card. This cut looks like a stencil. Then I glued it onto the front of a white card. I adhered the sailboat pieces onto the white shadow/blackout cuts. Then adhered the pieces into the stencil. To finish the card I adhered ribbon under the sailboat. Rounded the corners of the card. Used a white gel pen to do faux stiching around the edge of the card. Cut a small piece of black card and stamped 'happy birthday' from Lizzie anne designs Little Bits rubber stamp set using Versa Color 80 White.
