Happy Friday,
Today I will be flying off the Paperworld in Frankfurt! Im there for 3 days looking at all the new products available for 2018 ads well as having meetings with existing and new suppliers there should be some exciting thing to come this year...
Back to todays card and I made this card and box as a sample for the EU distributor of the John Next Door and Crafts Too ranges so I thought today was the perfect day to share it. The card uses the smallest panel from the sandwich box die set along with the stitch dot squares dies from Press Cut. I cut the corner die on each corner of a 5" square piece of lustre card. I then used the right sized square die form the stitch dot set and cut an aperture in the centre.
Next I added a piece of White cut with a smaller plain square die and finally a piece of black again cut with a smaller plain square die.
I cut the small panel twice into the pice that cuts from the centre of the top piece ( I hope this makes sense) and added this behind with the white square behind it.
I made a matching sandwich box for the card using the other dies in the set so that the card is protected for the journey and makes a nice gift!
Enjoy...

Morning John, you really are amazing, this creation that you are taking today to Frankfurt should have them singing from the rooftops, it really is wonderful, love the colours you have used too. The dies really are fantastic, they cut so well, I have never had a problem with any cardstock I have used although one of the best is the Lustre card stock. Wishing you every success at the shows over the next few days.
ReplyDeleteStay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

ReplyDeletelove your products. Especially stamps and gel-plates.
And your ideas are great!!!
Who is your EU-Distributor? I will be in Frankfurt as a visitor
but in the list of exhibitor I couldn`t find JND or Crafts Too.
Maybe you can answer me and give me the number of your stand?
Sorry, but my English isn´t the best.
Have a nice trip and enjoy the stay in Frankfurt
