I used the
Just rite quilted blocks background stamp
stamped on red card embossed with white powder
stamped again on red card & embossed in clear powder
cut the second card into 6 squares & glued onto first card as shown
cut some velum forked at both ends & stamped a sentiment added red embelishments
then matted onto white, red, & white card cut two borders one in white & then red glued them together bu just offset them.
A simple card i used Sue Wilson's
French collection BURGUNDY DIE
First i put a double sided sticky sheet onto white card pealed the backing off
& used silver guiding flakes & rubbed into the sticky sheet with a rub-bit scrub-it
then cut it out with the die placed onto a white base card cut a
S/W lattice bow & put pearl embellishment on
Another simple card
i did same as silver card but this time used gold guiding flakes
Cut out with Sue Wilson Austrian collection INNSBRUCK DIE
stamped a JOY sentiment on front & S/W latices bow in gold added gold dazzler.

Hi Margaret, thank you I am ok with the flakes on the double sided sticky sheets but have trouble with the glue on the stamp I don't know why but my card always get stuck to the stamp, i keep looking too see how Sue dose it,may be I'm using the wrong card. I will keep trying won't give up. Could ask Sue at Ally Pally to show me.
ReplyDeleteThank you again love Lynda xx
Hi Lynda
DeleteI have been thinking is perhaps your glue either too thick or too strong? Just a thought.
As for card have you ever tried www.papermilldirect.co.uk I use their card and paper always, it is produced near Kendal in the Lake District and they often have special offers. They do have a good range of plain and textured card and also a super range of coloured card they will send you a set of samples if you ask them. Until a few years ago you could go to their mill and buy all sorts but now they only do mail order. As I live in the Lake District it was not too far for me to go there and made a nice morning out. I do find their card very good on both quality and price. Sorry if I sound like an advert!
With love

Thank you Margaret kind of you ,I will look at the paper mill web site I use Crafters companion white pearl card it's 300gm . Had another look at one of Sues videos tonight & she put the flake glue on the stamp it was blue then left it a few second & put card on top of stamp,I stamped it onto the card so may try it again tomorrow thanks again Margaret Love Lynda xx
