Colourful Pieced Striplet Card
Hi bloggers! While it isn't really paper pieced in the true sense of the technique, it is a very similar sort of look that is quite easy to recreate.
The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 8 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x
what a truly beautiful card Sue, love it. Thanks for sharing and have an awesome day, hugs xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
A lovely card this morning. I love the striplet dies and the way you have done this to give the same effect is clever and I would never have thought of doing this and initially hadn't realised what you had done and thought it was a die I had missed LOL! Hence my deleted post :)
Hello Sue and all beautiful card today, I really like the vine and use it a lot. The 3D folder really sets the background off with the sentiments too. Have a lovely weekend, cold, windy and damp here, only the second day of winter -enough!!! Hugs Muriel x
Good Morning Sue and all. Beautiful card this morning , Love the background created. With hint of colour on the card works so beautifully. Thank you for doing the video. crafty hugs and well wishes to all...... Wendy
Hi Sue and lovely wilsonettes x Fabulous card Sue x will enjoy the video later after my chores x thankyou Sue x Take care everyone x Theresa w in Berks xxx
Lovely clean and simple card yet so full of impact - really like that 3D embossing folder you've used too...I don't have the Climbing Floral Vine as yet but maybe I can do something similar with the Petite Petals Striplet...
Good Morning Sue. This is simplicity itself..... and beautiful of course. I love it..... and the sentiment can be changed for other occasions if needed. The 3d folders are really fabulous. Really deep embossing. Up to press I only have one but I have my eye two others.... that I NEED lol. Well...didn't take long for the rain to appear after our holiday. It's throwing it down at the moment. Maybe it will clear the air a little. Sending best wishes to everyone. Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds.
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, such a beautiful card today, I will enjoy watching the video on how to make this. I get so much inspiration from them and your blog every day, thank you.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Morning Sue, a very pretty card, love the little pop of colour, and the similarity between the striplet die and the embossing folder is awesome. Off to watch the video, have a good day everyone. Bx
Hi Sue. What a lovely girlie card today. It looks quite simple at first glance but actually there is a lot of detail. Love the embossing folder background and great idea to cut the flowers and stems in different colours.
Hi Sue, a gorgeous card. Beautiful with the deep embossing of the background and the colourful flora vine. I love it. Thanks for your video, another to catch up with next week.
I am loving this Splendid Garland embossing folder. I had a chance to use this folder yesterday. It came out beautifully first time with NO cracking of my card. And I did not even have to mist the card first. I even used some gilding polish across the high points. Great video for a faux pieced floral vine. Thank you for sharing your ideas.
Hi Sue, a very pretty CAS card, love it. The 3D embossing folder certainly gives some interesting depth to the background. Thanks for the video, always useful.
Really pretty card. The striplet die is lovely. June Horrocks, I hope you had a lovely day on the 1st of June and that you got your sparkles. Take care everyone.
Hi Sue, I love this card for its simplicity and elegance. It looks easy to make it! The background embossing folder is gorgeous. I really love the soft colours. Thank you, Sue, for making and sharing cards like this one, giving hopes to those who love crafting but are less gifted than you. Hugs from Toronto to you all and special hugs to all missing friends. Still a newbie to Craft / not longer the newest, or the only across the pond Wilsonette Carmen-Dorothy
