Woven Background with some of Lisa Horton's Dies

Hi Bloggers.

I spent most of yesterday trying to fix some of the problems with my new website. Not completely there yet but I think I have made some progress and I've added a couple of new features. The prices are now displayed including VAT (yay!). There's now a Wishlist feature, you can request an email if a product comes back in stock and you can now purchase Gift Vouchers - tell your family about that one! I am still working on re-instating international shipping and the navigation is still an outstanding fix - it all takes time which is still in short supply this month.

I thought I'd share this card today for Helen who is a regular attendee of my local workshops -

For the weave, I cut the Sue Wilson's Intermediate Weaving Die out of Tan Card twice and the Striped Weaving Die out of Deep Blue Card twice. I glued one of the Deep Blue die cuts on top of one of the Tan ones at the ends only, offsetting them to fill in the gaps. I wove a tan strip from the Intermediate through my base and then a pair of strips from my blue strips. I repeated this pattern all the way across.

I made a frame out of Tan Card using dies #2 and #4 from Sue's Scalloped Lattice Frames Set B. I added it to my woven background using Woodware 2mm Foam Tape. I matted onto Deep Blue and then Tan Card.

I cut the reindeers out of Chestnut, Deep Blue, Rich Red, Black and Milk Card using Lisa Horton's Reindeer Pals Die Set.

I cut the sleigh and parcels out of Deep Blue and Tan Card using Lisa's Sleigh Die Set.

I cut the sentiment out of Rich Red Card using Lisa's Season's Greetings Die Set.

The winner of the card from Freebie Friday on 29th September is .................................
