It's the Sister-in-Law's birthday, hence another birthday card - they seem to come by so very quickly of late!
As with my previous cards using digital images, I utilised Photoshop to put the image & text on different layers so that they could be printed by two different printers. The text being printed by a Laser printer so that it can be foiled, then the image printed by the ink jet.
I foiled the text in Red, after letting the print thoroughly dry. Sadly, on this one, I can see a very faint line where the edge of the foil was. I will have to investigate a better way to do this type of cardfront.
As with one of the previous cards, the cardfront was mounted to some 300gsm red leathergrain cardbase.
As I mentioned previously, I have been making a concerted effort to use some of the many digital images purchased in the past - this lot have been sitting on my computer for about a year and have not been used before.
I also love the versatility of using digital images where you can resize to suit your purposes, and ofcourse the choices of so many fonts are available now!
AND I love the ability to print in separate layers, so that I can foil the text with my Mini Minc - win win!
