Hi Friends and Crafters. I do hope you have been enjoying the One Day Special shows with Fiona. Today I am sharing one of the cards I made for the launch, It really is such a stunning design and makes the most beautiful cards. Please dont miss the Final Call show at 5 pm, these are a smashing set of folders and once again so versatile.
You will need:
Basic Oval Dies
Green Satin Cardstock 5 x 7''
3 mm Foam Tape or Pads
Step 1: First emboss your Cream Card with the design. Place a basic oval die over the design and lightly draw around the outside. The trim around the leaves and ribbon that overhang the pencil line. Trim just past the line (approx 3-5 mm) to allow you to slip the die underneath.
Step 2: Now position your die where you traced, make sure that all the leaves and ribbon are above your die or they will be cut off. Then run through your machine.
Step 3: From the centre of your precious gold card, cut your oval layer, one size larger than before. Layer your embossed design onto this with Tacky glue.
Step 4: Layer your green and gold card using Tacky glue, then secure to your base card.
Step 5: Cut the word 'Peace' to add to this project. You can use any sentiment to suit the occasion.
Step 6: Secure your embossed topper to the base layers using 3 mm foam tape or pads to add further dimension.
This finishes your card.
