Craft up-to-the-minute cards in this eyecatching project with dramatic designs
Circles, dots and stripes are the latest craze and you will see them everywhere. Even here in this wonderful card collection designed by Caroline Blanchard. She has created a bold and vibrant set with this new trend flowing across each greeting. Use your versatile LMC kit in many ways to make traditional cards, or give them a modern feel by incorporating brightly coloured sequins, borders, ribbons and embellishments. Striking colourways, such as combining purples with oranges will make the impressive designs of this theme really stand out.

1. Cut a deep pink card, 8cm x 10cm. Add a paler piece, 8cm x 11cm, to the inside back. Secure butterfly and white strips to the front and top of the inside. Punch a circle from scrap pink card, adhere a chipboard motif on top, and secure to the card front with double-sided tape.
2. Stick a Lilac Fairy die-cut shape to the inside back of the card in the top right-hand corner using double-sided tape. As shown, secure the ready-made white bow with glue. Using a glue pen, fix all the sequins in position randomly, to finish.
Always use a bone folder to make sure your creases are neat
