Day 16 - N

Beccy's inspiration is a magical Northern Lights Night sky card HERE

My "N" is for NEW, New Year, again

... yikes, 2025 is less than a month away!

I shared my first New Year card HERE

My second New Year card design for the year started as a cut file in Silhouette Studio (details and link below).  The card is A6 size and has the ornate design cut out of the card base front.  I made two changes.  First I sliced off the ornate front panel so that I could mat it and layer it on the front of a card base.  The second change was the sizing, my favourite card size is 5" x 7", so I locked the aspect and increased the panel width to 5", the height increased to 6 3/4", which will still fit nicely in a 5" x 7" envelope.

I cut the ornate Happy New Year panels from gold glitter cardstock then matted them on 5" x 6 3/4".  I learnt my lesson from my first cards and was super speedy while dotting the glue.  I aligned the ornate glitter panels on the left side of the cardstock panels.

I made a pair of 5" x 6 3/4" card bases and adhered the ornate panels on top.

   

Wishing you a Happy 2025!!!
