Happy Birthday

Hi Bloggers.

A weave for you today -

I started by making a background. I stamped one of the stamps from the Justrite Playful Painted Trio Stamp Set onto a piece of Coconut White Card 3 times using CS Baked Peach Colour Cloud using a Smoothie to create a background. Once dry, I cut Sue Wilson's Classic Weaving Die from it.

I cut Sue's Striped Weaving Die from Peach Card. I cut this die cut into wide pair strips and wove each pair through the stamped Classic die cut.

I made a frame out of Peach Card using dies #2 and #4 from Sue's Scalloped Lattice Frames Set B. I added it to my woven background using 3D Foam Tape and trimmed away the excess using scissors.

I cut die #4 from Sue's Madeleine Die Set out of Peach Card and dies #3 and #4 together out of Coconut White Card.

I cut the Justrite Happy Birthday Sentiment Die out of Coconut White Card. I added Clear Perfect Medium to the die cut then Phill Martin CS Graceful Peach Embossing Powder and heat set. I added more ink, more powder and heat set.

I cut Sue's Star Floweer Cluster out of Peach and Coconut White Card and added 3mm White Pearls to the centre of the flowers.

I completed my card adding some 5mm White Pearls to the corners of my frame and mats of Coconut White and Peach Card.

The winner of the card from Freebie Friday on 20th January is .................

  30. Another lovely weave card.

    I have made two weave birthday cards thanks to your influence but they don't quite come up to your standards, more practice is needed I feel.
