A very enthusiastic group of calligraphers gathered in the hall for the calliart swing card afternoon.
Glenis Sheather was the tutor.
Glenis gave the group the measurements of the outer part of the card, then the insert measurements.
The outside part of the card was a heavier cardboard whereas the insert was a lighter paper.
Then a part had to be cut out of the outer part of the card, so that when the two parts were put together,
a picture of your choice (usually an old Christmas cut to the desired size and shape) could be added.
Some people in the group got everything together really well, yours truly had a few problems but was very
surprised and delighted that my card turned out well for a first attempt!.
Pictures were taken of the cards for show and tell and some masterpieces were exhibited.
Thank you Glenis for your patience, and for teaching us, how to do these beautiful and eye catching cards.
