Tuesday Tutorial - Gilded Gate Two

Hi Everybody,

Lots of us have the small Die D-Lites dies from Spellbinders  and after using them as intended we run out of ideas with what to do with them. Well here is a new idea that you may like to try and this uses the Gilded Gate Two

 So when is a gate not a gate ?? When it becomes the background to your card !!

Spellbinders Supplies:

• S3-202 Gilded Gate Two
• S6-005 5x7 Elegant Labels Four
• S6-001 5x7 Matting Basics A
• S6-002 5x7 Matting Basics B
• SCD-026 All You

Other Supplies:

• Glitter from Glitter Magic
• Ribbon and slider from Mei Flower 
• White and coloured card from Papermill Direct

Instructions:

With #7 from Matting Basics A cut two pieces and  create a hinged card  for the base

With #7 from Matting Basics B cut another in white and hand cut another in turquoise to layer in between the base card and the layer leaving a really fine border around the edges 

(Please remember that die #1 is always the smallest)

With #3 from Elegant Label Four cut one piece in turquoise and layer this with foam tape to the white layer from the previous step

With the Gilded  Gate cut two of them and spray them with adhesive and then sprinkle with glitter

(Alternatively cut from glitter card)

From the sentiment dies I have cut Love You in black card and craft foam and glued the two together for dimension

Add the two gates to mirror each other onto the layered turquoise and white card leaving a gap in the centre of the card ...

... and this gap will be covered by some satin ribbon and a looped bow with the sparkly buckle for an added touch. Layer these onto the hand cut turquoise card from an earlier step

Add the words as you would like them and then add all these layers to your base card

You will need to add a little extra glue to the back of the words to make them stick to the glitter

Dress with flowers if you wish
