Weaving Hessian

Hessian Backgrounds.
The card to the right is a mixture of items that I had lying on my desktop..
It is a 5x7 white base with a turquoise embossed panel added to the top. Then I have added in some of my handmade inky papers in s panel strip down the right hand side.
To the top ow that I have added in one of my own handmade hessian panels instead of using the die that I have from Amazon called Fish Net.
I think my own rendition is far more effective on the card and this one has has glue added to the dewing to keep everything in place.
It also means it will store better and not fray, if I don't need to use it straight away.
The butterfly is cut from silver mirror card and added to some thicker parchment and glued in place. I also added some pearls down the butterfly's body.
Bye for now ...

Jute Flowers
I have really enjoyed making these pretty flowers to share with you and I hope you have given them a try for yourself.
I have made all my cards into Birthday cards and this one uses the die that looks like Hessian/Burlap.
It is available on Amazon and I have added the link below the post, but don't forget to have a go at making the design from real Hessian and the video to show you how is coming on Monday.
I also have some more ways to make the flowers too and that will also be with you next week.
I love to add flowers of any description to my creations but the price has gone up so much for them that it is worth trying your hand at making some for yourself.
Use any flower dies that you may already have or try the paper template trick instead.
Bye for now ...
Hugs xx
