Hello bloggers! I started by embossing a piece of Old Rose card with the
Graduated Dots embossing folder. Next I cut two of the
Blossom Edger border out of Old Rose card and added them to strips of white card. I glued the borders to the top and bottom of the card. I cut a wide frame using the
Double Stitched Octagons out of white card and two smaller, thinner frames. I used the smaller frames on the sides of the larger frame to create a buckle card by weaving a thin strip of Old Rose card between them. I cut the
Wishes sentiment in Old Rose and added it to a white shadow backing, then glued it across the buckle strip. I stamped the word Best and cut it out with the tag from the set and attached it to the top corner of the wide frame. I added a border of
Iced Snow around the entire card. The card was completed with white and Old Rose mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8" x 8" in size. All for now. Sue x

ReplyDeleteIt’s been quite a while since you shared a buckle card but worth the wait, it’s gorgeous. It reminds me that I have that blossom edger somewhere, great to see older dies used along with newer ones
