I travelled up last night to Blackpool for today's demo at Burnside strikes demo day pop in and say hi if you are in the area!
Today's card is one of the demo pieces I have made for today's demo. Its made using the butterflies in flight mini triplet from Sue Wilson for Creative Expressions. To make the frame i used a combination of the double pierced sure dies and the mini triplet. I will be denying this technique on Hochanda on Wednesday or Thursday so if you can't make the demo you can tune in to catch this technique later next week.
Ill be back at the NEC tomorrow for the last day of the show and looking forward to meeting more of you there as well!
Enjoy...
love how the striplet dies have been used to make a frame

ReplyDeleteI love the way you have used the striplet for the background. The flowers are just gorgeous.

ReplyDeleteCould you please do a tutorial on how you made the filigree border with the dies? I am unable to watch Hochanda when you are on and don't have your channels to record. Love this card.
Hi John

Hello John,

Hi John,
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card, I think that you have used a similar technique with the quilted squares striplet die. I only remember because I had a go at it too and the card was given to my lovely step-granddaughter for her birthday last Thursday.
Hope that you travel safely, the weather here is very wet.
Thanks for sharing,
