Today sees the World launch of the brand new Sapphire die cutting and embossing machine from Spellbinders on Create and Craft.
Kim Hupke is over from US for two days and then on Saturday I will be showing you a little more on what this neat little winner can do
Please join me at 10am and again at 4 pm and I will be doing the shows each day until Wednesday
The embossed panel to this card is from a 3-D folder from Spellbinders called Need A Rope?
It is one I used quite a lot in the demos for Create and Craft last year and it makes an excellent backdrop to any of your male cards.
But for this one I decided to add in some flowers instead and this one is Crafty Flower Three
It is designed by Scrappy Cat and made by Spellbinders
The card is simply layered with cream and brown and I allowed the embossing to take centre stage
The sentiment is cut in antique gold and added to a brown strip.
These loopy sentiments are so handy to keep on your work top to add to any of your designs.
This one is Sentiments Four and the other one in the set is Get Well
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx

ReplyDeleteHi Christina, the embossing folder does have a masculine look about it but your lovely card proves that with a few choice embellishments, it becomes very feminine. X
