Today I am adding the video to share with you how I made this beautiful card.
I have used the really old 6x6 Heart Box Die Set that I designed as Card Making Magic a long time ago but if you have the die set then now is the time to get it out again.
For this I have added in some cheesecloth and a white die cut panel along with some blue flowers and the little cherub on the left side.
It is a really pretty card and the edges have been decorated with lace and although it looks fussy it is not hard to do at all.

This peach card is my favourite as it is so vibrant and the background colour way is created with inks by hand.
They can be for any occasion and any colour that you want but they all look really good once they are done and shabby chic is a style that never seems to go out of date.
Enjoy the video
Bye for now ...

Good Morning Christina and all that visit today. Thank you for showing us your shabby chic designs. I've not had time to comment this week because of family matters. I have looked at each days posts and have saved the videos to watch your fabulous work later. Everyone is a gem. And I will certainly be creating them soon for two of my friends who both have 80th birthdays coming up. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗and best wishes to everyone. Please stay safe and well 🙏.

ReplyDeleteMorning. Today’s cards are works of art. The only problem with receiving this type of card is where do you store them - you couldn’t possibly throw them away!!! Janet Boyne
ReplyDeleteYou could always frame them but most of mine go to family friends and the charity shop !!! Cxx
ReplyDeleteThe video helps a lot on how to build these cards. Absolutely lovely.

ReplyDeleteI have the heart box die set so I will be making one of these for my Sister, thank you for sharing Christina
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely day Sue xx
Both are so pretty! I love the colors and textures!
ReplyDeleteHi Christina, really lovely ideas with the heart dies, I do have a set of hearts dies ,not the originals but near enough so I shall have a go, they are lovely & would be good for anniversaries as well as birthdays and they are a bit different . Must say you always make it look easy, an idea for Janet's comment would be to put I narrow ribbon on the top of the card to hang them up, its seems to be the thing at the moment .

Always just use what you already have even if they are not the same as the ones I have …. And save yourself some money in the process Cxx

ReplyDeletelovely cards Christina, as always.
ReplyDeleteThey are all so gorgeous, it is fun doing shaped cards. The glass glitter sure does add a special touch, keep forgetting to use that stuff
ReplyDeleteAdding lace definitely brings the card to another level... stunning!
