The main feature of todays card is layers and frames and to show you how easy it is to get the double frame around the sentiment. You could add in any flourish die that you have to surround your flowers to make a really pretty display
Spellbinders Supplies:
- S6-001 5x7 Matting Basics A
- S6-002 5x7 Matting Basics B
- S4-430 Foliage Flourish
- SEL-007 Blistered embossing folder
- PL-001 Platinum Machine
Other Supplies:
- Flowers/Lace/Dove from WOC
- Chameleon Glitter from Glitter Magic
- Woodware Stamp
- La Creme pearls from Want2Scrap
- Cream card from Papermill Direct
- Kraft Card from AnnaMarie Designs
Instructions:
With die #7 from Matting Basics A cut two from Kraft card and Create a Hinged Card
With #7 from the Matting Basics B cut one layer in cream
Flat glue this to the base card
=========
With #6 from the A set cut another layer in Kraft card
With #6 from the B set cut another layer in cream and emboss with the folder.
Flat glue these two together and then wrap with lace or ribbon
Add foam tape to the back of these and add to the base layers
(Please remember that die #1 is always the smallest)
From Matting Basics A take dies #1 and 2 and 3 and lay them all together on some Kraft card and tape in place and just EMBOSS ... this is an important step
Once embossed carefully remove the centre die, without disturbing the others, and now you can CUT
This will give you the impression that the frame is double layered.
Add foam pads to the back of the frame
Stamp and heat emboss the sentiment of your choice and cut it out with die #3
Add the frame to the top and press down
Add more foam pads to the back of this panel
Layer the sentiment panel to the front of the card off setting it as you do.
Arrange the flourish, flowers, pearls and the dove as you would like them
Sprinkle the petals with some glitter for effect
More tomorrow ...

ReplyDeleteHi Christina,
ReplyDeleteWhat a great card, I love the colours of the flowers, they go so well with the kraft card. I think I'm going to practise making that lovely frame tomorrow, what a brilliant effect you get from embossing with the three dies before cutting with just two of them.
Another super tutorial, thanks so much.
