Monday Sneak Peek

Hi Bloggers.

I thought I'd start sharing some samples from my shows on Hochanda this coming weekend so you can get some idea of what's on offer and start yourself a list!

Here's today's peek -

For the background, I used the cutting edge die and one of the insert dies from the Spellbinders Classic Bracket Edgeabilities Die Set along the bottom edge of a piece of Coconut White Card. I rounded the top 2 corners using a punch. I cut a slightly larger piece of Coconut White Card
and inked it with Mountain Rose Adirondack Dye Ink using a Smoothie.

I cut the largest motif die in the Spellbinders Moroccan Motifs Die Set twice and inked through the die with Mountain Rose. I stacked them on top of each other, offsetting them slightly. I cut a smaller motif out twice and again inked through the die with Mountain Rose. I stacked these too, offsetting them. Finally, I cut one of the tiny dies, inked through the die and added it to the centre.

I stamped the sentiment from CE Tatty's Text Stamp Set using Jet Black Archival. I cut it out using a die from the Spellbinders Victorian Tags Die Set and inked through the die with Mountain Rose. I cut the corresponding fancy die from the same set out of Coconut White Card, inked through the die and stacked them together.

I assembled the card as shown adding some White Pearl Corners and piercing around the edges using my Tim Holtz Ruler, Precision Probe and Piercing Mat.
