Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

July 20, 2015

Chocolate Brown and Teal

Hi Everybody,

Todays card is a million miles away from pink and is quite a dramatic effect

For this card I have used the Medallions Three   and it is quite a large die.

But there is a smaller piece #1 that can often be overlooked and yet is such a useful addition to be used on its own.

So here I have created a card just using that die and I have cut it six times and layered it on to the embossed  teal card

These have been wrapped with chocolate brown ribbon and then added with foam tape to the another brown layer

I added them all to another teal layer before being adding them to the card

The sentiment is from Crafters Companion and it has been stamped and embossed

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx

    Hi Christina, I love this colour combo for a change, it looks really rich and luxurious. The die makes a lovely lacy panel. Janelle x

    Hi Christina,
    love the dramatic colours you've used on this pretty card. It'great that you've used the smaller dies as they do tend to get overlooked.
    Good luck today.
    Love Val in Spain x

    Good morning Christina

    The colour of your card is as you say very dramatic. I wasn't sure that I liked it when I first saw it but it has grown on me. Love the word sentiment and the dies used.

    Best wishes
    Joan

    Hi Christina
    Lovely design for a card but the colour ways are not to my taste but think it would look wonderful in your usual 'pink'
    Love and best wishes

    Hi Christina another beautiful card I have this die but would never have thought of using the smallest die in this way. Well done on your shows your demonstrations were beautiful. I emailed in for both show and managed to win a card on your first show, and had my email read out on the second show.
    Well done.
    Kind regards
