Have A Roaring Good Time
Hi crafters! I started with a piece of Ruby Red card for the background. Using the Fantail Rosette die, I cut it three times out of black gloss card. I cut the ends off off each of them and glued them to the sides of the card. I cut two white mats using the Double Stitched Rectangles and matted them. I added a thin black gloss mat beneath them. I cut the Have A Roaring Good Time sentiment out of black gloss card and glued it to the middle of the card. The card was completed with white, red and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/4" x 8 1/2" in size.
Hi Sue. What a good idea to use part of the rosette die to extend the frame of the card towards the sentiment panel. Such a simple idea but so effective.
Morning Sue. A very striking card. Apologies for not commenting before but I don’t get your blog posts in my emails nowadays and I forgot to search for them. I’ll catch up today. Xx Betty McAlister
