Beau Papier

I am probably only one of large handful of people to have already made up some cards from the new Beau Papier Paper card collection from Craftwork Cards.  Only last week it was selling on the Create & Craft Channel as a 4 day deal. Currently it doesn't seem to be for sale anywhere else, not even on the Craftwork Cards website.

This paper craft kit consists of a paper pad, die cut toppers, sentiments, banners, flowers and 12 concept cards.

I was drawn to this particular collection because of the design of the toppers which were inspired by a highly acclaimed artist specialising in paper cuts, Rob Ryan.  I like the way Steph Davies, inhouse designer for Craftwork Cards has been inspired by his artwork and created some awesome designs. What I would like to see now is Crafters Companion bring out some of their "Create a Card" dies along the same lines of these designs so I have emailed them making a suggestion.

Now it is show time!  Here are the concept cards I have made in an afternoon.  I hope you enjoy them.  I will post some more once I have some time to make up some general cards using the rest of the paper kit with those gorgeous toppers.  But right now I need to get on with some other choirs!

This last picture is to illustrate how the cards stand upright.
