Hello everyone,
Welcome to the 6th International Ambassadors informal bloghop.
This time we are all creating a project using the Spellbinders Victorian Garden die-templates.
I chose S4-531 Romantic Vines.
This set is perfect for a swirly leave accent to a card, but can also be used as background decoration as I did on my cards.
Instructions white card:
- cut/emboss Matting Basics Small #6 (with #1 being the smallest die-template) from cream cardstock.
- cut/emboss Matting basics Large #6 from white cardstock.
- Glue both layers onto a white card (folded) size 4
⅔"
x
6
⅔" using #D foam squares.
- Cut/emboss all Romantic Vines templates twice from gold foil.
- Sand the foil for a slightly worn effect.
- Glue the vine die-cuts onto the card and cut the parts that overlap the embossed lines using a craftknife or tiny scissors.
- Glue a satin banner onto the card.
- Stamp sentiment onto cardstock and cut to a banner. Glue onto card using 3D foam squares.
- Finish the card using some twine, flowers, leaves and self-adhesive Pearls.
I also made a purple/lilac version of the card....
