Its a new week and weathers looking lovely. Todays card is the second from my class with new stamps and dies from Chloe. This one used the Butterfly Arch stamp and die, together with papers from one of her 8x8 pads from last year. This die follows the same effect as the 3D flower, this time the Butterfly wings cut out the rest stays in place. I used another one of her new embossing powders called Mint Posset. The sentiment is also from Chloe and I cut it up so it would fit on the card. The paper from the pad is matted behind and matches the embossing powder beautifully. Side view so you can see the Butterfly Wings. Back again soon with the last card using the Butterfly circle and the lovely new Glitter Kisses from Creative Expressions. Have a fab day
Beau Papier; Craftwork Cards;
I fell in love with the ‘Time Flies Collection’ from Craftwork Cards at a recent Woodware Retailers’ Day. I got hold of the 8×8″ paper pack and the elements pack and set to work to create as many individual cards […]
Another in the series of fun folds and today's card is a concertina one , when this folds in it will fit in a 6" envelope. It's slightly different in that it as three folds down the side. It stands up really well and you could cut it down some of the height if you wanted to make it smaller. I used a piece of 10"x 6" white card. On the long side score are 2", 2.5", 3" and 3.5" then turn it around and do the same at other end. The patterned paper mats are 5 3/4" x 1 3/4" you need 2 one for each end. Middle panel of patterned paper 5 3/4" x 2 3/4" Folded panels of patterned paper 5 3/4" x 1/4" and you need 6. I used one piece of paper and glued them down so pattern continues over the three pieces. For the middle I used John Next Door Tatty Daisy dies again ( I sat and made a load of these one night) The centres are made from Flowersoft. I arranged some Creative Expression leaf dies around the flowers. The sentiment die cuts came with the Craftwork Paper pad kit , so they match. No idea what range it is as I have thrown packaging away. Products used: John Next Door Tatty Daisy die Craftwork cards papers and sentiment die cuts.
