One Day Special Continues today

Hi Bloggers.

My Spellbinders One Day Special continues today on Hochanda with shows at 9am, 12noon, 4pm and 7pm.

I hope you're liking the new Art Deco dies from Spellbinders. I have a step by step for you today with some of the dies and one of the the lovely papers from the Craft Consortium English Garden 12 x 12 Paper Pad.

I've used - Spellbinders S5-250 Astoria Labels and S5-254 Astoria Decorative Elements

Also - Spellbinders S4-589 Savoy Decorative Elements and S4-588 Savoy Decorative Accents

I cut die #2 from the Astoria Decorative Elements (where #1 is the smallest) and #2 from the Savoy Decorative Elements out of Coconut White Card. I stamped the sentiment from the Creative Expressions Petite Lavish Sentiments Stamp Set onto Coconut White Card using Watering Can Archival and cut it out using #1 from the Astoria Labels. I cut dies #2 and #4 from the Astoria Labels out of a paper from the Craft Consortium 12 x 12 Paper Pad. Finally, I cut #1 die from the Savoy Decorative Accents out of the patterned paper 5 times.

When I've cut out all I need, I always arrange them on my craft sheet to work out the size of card to cut for a background.

For the 5 little die cuts, I scored them all across the centre using my Hougie Board.

I popped some CS Glue on one side of each of them

and then glued them all together.

I have embossed the background using a new Spellbinders Embossing Folder called Circles and Diamonds (SES-006). Sorry, it's not available yet - it's due in March. Watch this space!

I assembled the card as shown. I used some more patterned paper as one of my mats but I did cut the centre out of it to use in another project! I added White 8mm Pearls to the corners and pierced around the edges using my Tim Holtz Ruler, Precision Probe and Piercing Mat.

Hope you've liked this step by step. Hopefully, I will be demoing this in one of the shows today.

There's 10% discount on items I have in stock on my website from the shows. You can find them here. Offer applies till midnight tonight.

I have added pictures of the samples to the Gallery on this blog (access via the top menu) and on my Julia Watts Crafts facebook page.

The winner of the card from Freebie Friday on 26th February is.................
