I have had some messages saying that you are looking forward to the Hessian flowers videos but that you don't know what Hessian is
This is a card I did quite some time ago and on it I used a die that is called Fish Net that I got from Amazon.
The reason I am showing it here is because it looks very similar to what Hessian would look like with some of the strands thinned out a little bit.
I have cut this in Kraft card but I could just as easily have made it my self using real Hessian.
I will do some on a card using the real Mc-coy and show you what it looks like, next week once the video has gone live featuring the Hessian.
I have brought the videos forward to Monday, and Thursday in the hope that it will make things and the material a little clearer for those who have never used it.
Bye for now ...
Hugs
Morning - I would never have bought a die that looked like that but it really does look effective. Janet Boyne
ReplyDeleteI had a search for hessian but looks like mainly sold in the UK, seems similar to burlap, maybe more delicate?
ReplyDeleteHessian and Burlap are exactly the same thing ... just depends on where you live. UK Hessian / USA Burlap
DeleteLove this card for a man. Looking forward to this video on henssian, I am very curious on how the real Mc-coy looks like.
ReplyDeleteThank you for this future educational video.
Have a wonderful weekend

Hi Christina, super card ~ I’m tempted to see if I can find this die on Amazon! Enjoy the weekend.

The Hessian/Burlap die is from Amazon and I have now added the links to the bottom of the post.
DeleteThanks Christina. Looks a little like burlap or jute. Looking forward to the videos. Vicli L Phillips
ReplyDeleteI love the card! Emily, above, questioned hessian as I do! Is it the same as burlap or perhaps in the same family! Sharon Brand
ReplyDeleteI was wondering and thought that is what it was, I love this style of card, especially for masculine card!
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Christina and all that visit today. I love the Hessian look on this card. But I am not sure how the flowers will work . But I am confident that you will make it look easy. Unfortunately I think I might miss some of the lovely videos you are doing. I am hoping the wifi will be working when we get to our hotel. . So as I explained before if the wifi is working I will be able to post . Thankyou Christina . Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone. Please stay safe and well 🙏 .
