Labor Day Sale, New Artwork, New FREE Collage Sheet

Filed under Art Projects, Back in Stock, Bella Ayers, Cards & Constellations Kit, Celestial Papers, Collage Sheets
Update! A newer post about Bella’s Tarot Cards is here. And/or you can see the supply list on the new site.

Note: as this is a holiday weekend here in the US: $2.95 shipping for orders over $50 (for orders shipping to USA) now through Tuesday night, September 5th! Plus shipping is always free on orders over $100!
 

Oooh! How beautiful! I sooo love these Tarot Cards by Design Team Coordinator Miz Bella (Kim Ayers)! They look vintage with the dark sepia and blue colors. And they are a cinch to make, even though they look so rich.

Bella used 2 each of the Spider Web Wrought Iron Playing Card and Stars Playing Card as her base (and that last one is also in the Cards & Constellations Kit).

Plus she used deep blue background papers (Seize the Night Scrapbook Paper and Double Dot Vintage Dark Denim Blue Scrapbook Paper).

And, of course, the stars of these cards: the ladies from The Star Fairies Collage Sheet.

One of them has a diamond-shaped frame around her, cut out from the Large Blue Mosaic Scrapbook Paper (see a close-up of that card down in the Giveaway).

Throw in some highlights using Stickles Glitter Glue and you’re done!

Scroll down past the loverly new items (a mix of Christmas and Halloween) to see a new collage sheet Bella inspired (that is FREE through Saturday night!) and scroll down even farther to enter today’s Giveaway, including everything to recreate Bella’s Tarot Cards!
 

 

 
NEW FREE Gift: 1:12 Tarot Cards Mini Collage Sheet!

I was inspired by Bella’s beautiful, vintage-looking tarot cards, so I’ve made a new mini collage sheet with tiny little tarot cards in 1:12 scale, and I’m giving it away free with ALL orders now through Saturday Night!

The cards are in 2 sizes: approx 9x18mm and 7.5x15mm — and the larger set is in 2 colors (antiqued in sepia, or black lines ready for adding a bit of color with markers).

Here are a couple ideas: You could use these cards as embellishments on a small collage or ATC. Or use the cards inside (or displayed with) the Mini Cigar Box Set or a cigar box made from the Mini Cigar Boxes Half Sheet.

The new 1:12 Tarot Cards Mini Sheet will be sent FREE with every order placed August 31st through September 2nd. All-digital orders will receive the collage sheet as a pdf file. Note: If you order this collage sheet before Sunday, I’ll assume you’re buying a second copy.
