Merry & Bright
Hello there my crafty friends! I started today's card by cutting the Plume Corner four times out of antique gold card. I glued them into each of the corners of a piece of white card. I cut the Stained Glass Bells die by cutting the outer die in white. I nipped into it by cutting down the centre of it and then cutting out a piece of it then putting it back together. I attached it in the middle of the card with mounting foam. I cut the Bell die in white and added a piece of acetate to the back then filled it the areas with glue and tapped polished silk glitter over it. Once I finished all the colours, I set it aside to dry overnight, then glued it into place in the middle of the card. I added the Merry & Bright sentiment from the Christmas Wordie sheets to the bottom of the Stained Glass Bells. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8" x 9 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x

ReplyDeleteBeautiful card.
ReplyDeleteHi Sue. Not too sure about this one as I think the stained glass die looks so small in the center of the card against the larger plume dies. I think I would have put a large sentiment in the middle - sorry
