Mandala #5


Today, I’m sharing a Thank You card using KLM Digital DesignMandala #5 from the new February 2024 release.

Hammermill – Premium Cardstock 110 lb. was used to create a 5.5″ x 4.25″ card base. Crafter’s Companion Luxury Cardstock – Silver was cut to the size of 4.25″ x 4.25″ and applied directly to the base using double-sided tape. Using a Cuttlebug and PaperCrafter Today – 15 Die Cut Sentiment Set, I die cut “Thank You” out of the same cardstock. With My Creative Time -Stitched Squares Inside and Out dies and Cuttlebug, I die cut a 4″ x 4″ square out of Craft Consortium – Ink Drops – Ocean Cardstock. Tim Holtz Distress Ink – Blueprint Sketch was applied all around the outside edges. I also cut 2 small strips of 3/8″x 4.25″ out of the same cardstock. U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape was applied to the smaller square and it was popped up onto the silver background. Liquid glue was applied to the 2 smaller stripes and sentiment and they were all applied directly to the base card.

The image was imported into Microsoft Word and printed out onto Copic Marker X-Press It Blending Card. I coloured in the image with Copic markers listed below and then I fussy cut around it leaving a thin white border. The Mandala was popped up onto the top part of the card using U-Line Double-Sided Foam Tape. Lastly, using liquid glue, I attached gems from Buttons Galore and More to complete the card.
