Have A Roaring Good Time
Hello crafters! I used the Diamond Art Embossing folder to emboss a piece of antique gold card. I extended the design to make a larger background. Next I cut the Fantail Rosette and cut three of them in white and one in antique gold. I cut the tail off of all the white die cuts and glued them to the top and bottom of the edges. I added a thin strip of teal card to cover the cut edges. I cut the Elegant Fanfare die. I cut two of them out of teal card and one out of ocean card. I cut all three of them down in size and reassembled them into smaller squares. I seated them across the card in a diamond orientation. I added a white backing piece to the gold Rosette die cut and seated it across the three middle dies. I cut the Have A Roaring Good Time out of both ocean and black card. I shadow the sentiment then glued it to the centre of the card. The card was completed with white, gold and teal mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 8 1/2" in size.

ReplyDeleteHi Sue. Love the colours you have used today which make a really striking card. I am pleased that you have explained how you cut the dies down to make them fit into the card as that is something I don't always think about doing.
