Spanner Panel Cards 

Todays workshop focused on creating a different card design, named Spanner Panel Card. It gives an interesting extra layer to the card, which can be used to hide even more wonders under. Once the base card was created, then it was mainly a case of matt and layering! 

The first card used both patterned and plain paper to create the effect, some of the plain card was embossed to add an extra texture and dimension. It was then a case of using a beautiful die set from Spellbinders, to create the edging and sentiment die, which gave it that nice elegance. 

The second card went for a plainer style with less frills but used acetate to achieve the clear layer in which the beach huts and sentiment was adhered to, giving it the effect of greater depth.
