Today I thought I would share another card made using the Sandwich Box dies ( or at least one of the dies in the se) that is very me. I love making these border cards however with the matching small corner form the sandwich box set I was able to put a matching centre in the card.
Next I used the small triangular die form the same set and cut this into a square of the same colour card. I matted this on the gold glaze adding small pearls on each of the junctions. I then matted this on increasing layers of the gold gaze and the cocoa bean.
Simple but very me!
Enjoy...
Morning John oh you do make me laugh with your spellings, it certainly wakes up the old brain cells of a morning, ha ha, you know I love them don't you. Anyway I am loving this sample, I like the idea of the smaller die in the set and being able to make the centre piece, it looks so cute on here.
ReplyDeleteI have some of the Red lustre card which arrived yesterday, as did the Blue Lustre and oh my word it is gorgeous, the red flower on here does not do it justice because the colour always changes when we do photo's doesn't it. Highly recommend the Lustre card everyone.
I hope you have caught up with your sleep after your hectic few weeks, shows, travelling, workshops etc. would you like some matchsticks??
Anyway enjoy whatever you are doing today.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Love all the cards you have made using this die and the star flowers. I wish you did this die separately, as the boxes (whilst great value for what you get) are rather beyond my price level.
ReplyDeleteHugs Helen xx

ReplyDeleteLove June Horrocks xxxxxx
Such a beautiful card, would never have thought to use the die in that way, you are clever.
ReplyDeleteAm patiently waiting for your starflower die to come into stock again. Am so excited as it makes the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen!
Hi John this is a stunning card I love it. Those dies are amazing. Have a great day today. Take care. Hugs Jackie
ReplyDeleteHi John. Great idea, but there is a bit too much border for me - sorry.
ReplyDeleteLisbeth
Great card John nice to see your old style now and again, not that I have anything against your more recent techniques.

I can't thank you enough as you are giving us the chance to produce cards like these! You WILL be on Santa's good list for being so good to all of us xx
Hello John,
ReplyDeleteSorry I've been AWOL, blame the Saintly George for being unwell.
I've looked back over the days I've been missing and every card is beautiful. You must be so proud that so many people love your stamps, dies and work.

Another beautiful card John. I'm afraid my wish list gets longer by the day and I sometimes wonder if I'll ever have time to use all the dies I have but still keep buying more. Must be an obsession I think.
