Decorative Lace Border

Good morning! Another favourite colour combo of mine and I absolutely love this shade of the silky crush ribbon!  This is another of the Heartfelt Creation dies (aren't they lovely, you can tell that I favour them, can't you?!)  This is the Decorative Lace border that I have used, cut out of taupe card and threaded my ribbon through some of the openings.  I know it is difficult to see behind my ginormous bow, sorry!  I stamped my sentiment on the bottom corner of the same colour background card.   I wanted a tone on tone look for it.  I matted it on to a piece of decorative card which matched my ribbon.  I cut the bottom border with a decorative insert and a cutting edge from the edgebility range.  The top was done using one of the smallest inserts to give it a pretty accent.  I pierced down the left and right side and added a swirly pearl piece for bling to finish off my card.  Very simple, quick and easy, but I was really happy with it in the end. 
Now for the good news!  I have finally finished my shows for the week.  There were sell outs of the remaining two bundles of new dies after my 1pm show yesterday so they let me go home after the show and have cancelled the remaining shows on Thursday and Friday.  This is good news because I can finally get into work today and get all the blog candy drawings caught up!  For the first time ever, I am officially three blog candy drawings behind!  Check back later this afternoon for a list of winners!  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue
Stunningly beautiful card as all of yours are. Got my Lace Borders die a couple of days ago and it cuts out great especially with the waxed paper - but I must share with you that there are 344 bits (at least)to push out of the die!!! Am I sad or what?? I have a bit of and OCD ( I am a tidy crafter)problem so hitting on the edge of the table doesn't do it for me but I now have a little helper who cleans it for 50p a time!!! Enjoy Ally Pally
love from a true crafty saddo
