I hope everyone is well wrapped up with the weather being so cold and possibly snowy!
One of my favourite techniques today using the panel die from the sandwich box die set.
I stared by cutting the panel die into two sides of a piece of wild berry lustre print card. Next I cut 2 larger panels of the rosa pink and quilted them using the die running it through my platinum using the embossing sandwich so that it embosses but doesn't cut. I placed these behind the cut pieces so that the embossed areas pop through the cut pieces.
I then added a wide stripe of satin edged ribbon in chocolate with a tie from. I stamped the sentiment, from my everyday sentiments clear stamps set and cut this out with the larger notched tag die in the tags set. I added a border made in the pink using the largest and smallest notched tags.
My usual set of mats and layers and finished.
Enjoy...
WOW! oh! WOW!! what a stunning card, love it.
ReplyDeleteMight have a go later it would make an amazing Chistmas Card.
Hope you manage to relax for a little while today.

ReplyDeleteMorning John, oh this is fabulous, I have been thinking about doing this technique in my head but to be truthful I have been so busy and am very tired, so not got round to doing it yet, but I will, oh I got more of the lustre cardstock yesterday, the colours are simply amazing, much better in real life.
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoyed Chesterfield store yesterday.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

A lovely card. Really enjoyed your demo yesterday John. It was a shame there were so few people around, but good for those of us who were there - we got your undivided attention! No snow here at Dronfield yet, but they keep telling us it's on the way.
ReplyDeleteLovely card today, John. I am going to hibernate today - we have quite a covering of snow and it's still coming.

Hi John
ReplyDeleteA beautiful card, great colours.
My card cracked when I tried quilting it, so I spritzed it next time which helped a bit.

A beautiful card John. Love the chocolate coloured ribbon with those colours. Thank you. Well I am very lucky to be able to comment today. After commentating yesterday the iPad refused to do anything. So couldn't use it yesterday and most of today. Was able to see my son and he has fixed it, for a while, having had to delete quite a few things so something must be done. Sooner rather than later. He has backed everything up. Take care everyone.xxx
ReplyDeleteFabulous card.
ReplyDeleteHi John. I would have to agree that the quilting technique is very striking (Shame I am not so good at it).
ReplyDeleteLisbeth
Eh up John
ReplyDeleteNot a fan of the big strip of ribbon but still a super card.
Hope you have been snuggled on the sofa with Kate's woolly socks watching naff TV, with a big plate of cheese.
