Hi Bloggers.
I've got another woven card today. I love playing with different combinations. This one uses Sue Wilson's Striped Weaving Die in a 2 by 2 weave.
I cut the Striped Weaving Die twice out of Coconut White Card and twice out of Custard Card. I split the Custard die cuts into strips of 2. The Coconut White Die Cuts, I glued together on both ends offsetting them to fill in the gaps.
I left the left hand side intact and cut up the right hand side to make pairs of strips. I wove a pair of Custard strips in and out of every 2 Coconut White strips until the full length was completed.
I cut a frame out of Coconut White and Custard Card using Sue's Ornate Pierced Rectangles Die Set. I cut the largest die in the set out of Coconut White Card to form a mat.
I stamped the sentiment from the Creative Expressions Delightful Sentiments Stamp Set onto Custard Card using Perfect Medium and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer True White Detail Embossing Powder. I cut it out using Sue's Pierced Flags Die Set and cut a mat out of Coconut White Card.
I made a flower out of Felt using Sue's Classic Foldover Flowers Die Set (see my video here).
I cut some leaves and flowers using Sue's Blossoming Branch Die Set. I shaped them using an Embossing Tool and Moulding Mat. I added some 3mm White Pearls to the centre of the flowers.
I assembled the card as shown adding some 8mm White Pearls and piercing around the edges.
Thanks for stopping by.

Hi Julia, really love this card. Your weaving is so neat and close. Love the colours too, takes me back to my childhood and a famous brand of custard powder. I must add the weaving dies to my list, they are so versatile and always give the wow factor.
