Collage Cards and Pictures

Here's an effective idea for cards or pictures
Make a birthday or Christmas card with scraps of card and material
Or put in an inexpensive frame to give as a gift

Materials
-Coloured card
-Glue ('Pritt stick' is ideal)
-Scissors
-Pencil, ruler, coloured pens (optional)
-Inexpensive frame (optional)
-And any off-cuts of material or card
...I used some wrapping paper, a carrier bag, a gold plate mat but you can use anything...
 (for metallic materials you could use foil and tin trays too)
-Fold coloured card into half for a card or just use a single piece of card with an inexpensive frame
-Cut materials into strips and glue on
-Or cut into rough circles and stick ontop of each other for Klimt-style motifs
Keep the shapes simple, use different textures and metallic material works well
Write your message on a card or put into a frame for a gift!
