Another card form my shows yesterday this time in one of my favourite colours the stunning Ginger Foundation card. Ive always had a love of Autumn shades so there may be a few more of these popping up over the coming weeks.
I stated by cutting a long pierce of milk foundation card I then cut the centre filigree section of the Lattice and Lace triplet, designed by Sue Wilson, from this card starting at the left hand side.
Next I took a piece of ginger card and embossed the lattice and lace striplet only. I then cut each of the flowers out of this embossed piece by hand to make the flowers that would fit exactly into the spaces in the cut section. I glued these onto the back so that the flower was covered from the front.
To make up the card I mounted the topper to the right hand side and added a few stick on pearls to highlight the centres of the flowers. Next I from mounted the whole pic on deep cocoa foundation card so that you can really see the detail of the striplet die cut.
A layer of milk card, embossed with the eternity eA4 embossing folder and highlighted with pearl moon gilding wax finishes the final layer.
As I will be saying when I use these darker shades you could simply change the colours to make it match the occasion you want to make it for
Phill Martin is taking over the One Day Special spot tonight at 8pm with his stunning bracket stamps, don't forget to tune in!
Ingredients:
Creative Expressions Craft Dies by Sue Wilson
Lattice & Lace Striplet
Porto die set
Ginger, Deep Cocoa and Milk foundation card
Eternity embossing folder

ReplyDeleteHi John,
ReplyDeleteGreat show last night.
Had to go and buy autumn shades as your card looked so good!
Had to search for the primrose and can't wait for it to arrive as you said it's not yellow? Sounds interesting.
Have another good day and take care out there everyone!

Hi John,
ReplyDeleteThis card is yummy! It's got a real Xmas biscuit feel to it (In Germany we always bake special biscuits for that occasion - nowadays people just buy them which is such a shame). LOVE the colours and the work you've put in. I suspect I would be lazy and just colour the fall-away flowers and stick them back in.
Best wishes, Rose
Hi John,
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card, love the colours and the way that you have used the striplet.
Thanks for sharing,

Hi John
ReplyDeleteI have to say I am in love with this card, I just love the detail on it and I love the ginger card. Such a warm autumnal card.
I don't know how you come up with such beauties day after day.
Nice use of the striplet die with another die set.
ReplyDeleteHi John,
ReplyDeleteWow!! I think this card is gorgeous, I was watching you demo this last night but you were only half way through when my best friend Skype'd me from Canada, great time timing hey?? Its a good job I was recording the shows.
I think your shows have been amazing, your so talented and your tips are so useful for a newbie like me. Can't wait until your back on our screens.
Take care
Linda xx
Hi John,

Morning John, another lovely card today, although I am not sure about the colour, but I think it would look stunning in a different colour.

ReplyDeleteMissed your shows, and only caught the end of one. I need to see some tutorials on the boxes please as the one I caught was the one on which you used the temporary spray!!!!! xxx
Hi John
ReplyDeleteWhat a stunning card today. I saw this die when Sue released it and thought hmm I'm jot yo keen on this one. But to see it made up, what a difference it made. My Bank Manager is nit young to be impressed John. I'm not yo sure if Sue demoed this in a die release, if she did I missed the card she made. Love the Autumn colours you've used as well. They work so well together.
I have the ginger and the Striplet! I'm loving what you've showed using this Striplet This card is amazing Gonna have a play tomorrow
ReplyDeleteHi John
