Monday Sneak Peek

Hi Bloggers.

I have another sneak peel for you today from the One Day Special that I'm launching on Hochanda tomorrow at 6pm.

I started by just cutting die #1 from Sue Wilson's Stitched Square Peg Board Die Set into a piece of Duck Egg Card. I cut the Shadow Box Frame from Sue's Celebrations Shadow Box Die Set out of Coconut White Card and glued it to the Peg Board Die Cut. I made a frame using dies #2 and #4 from Sue's Stitched Square Peg Board Die Set out of Coconut White Card. I added it to my background using Woodware Foam Tape, trimming away the excess using scissors. I matted onto Duck Egg Card and then Coconut White Card.

I popped a little CS Clear Vanish Lacquer onto my Craft Sheet and painted it onto a piece of Primrose Card and onto Coconut White Card. Once dry, I cut the balloons and present from the Celebrations Shadow Box and the cake icing from Sue's Make a Cake Die Set.

I tied some Pastel Baker's Twine around the ends of the balloons.

I cut the cake stand out of Silver Mirror Card and the remainder of the cake out of Coconut White Card. I coloured the candles using Mustard Seed and Spiced Marmalade Distress Markers.

I cut the sentiment from the Celebrations Shadow Box out of Coconut White Card.

The winner of the card from Freebie Friday is ........................

Sunday Sneak Peek

Hi Bloggers.

I'm back home now. I'll be catching up with as many of my website orders that I can today and spending the next couple of days getting my demos together for the One Day Special that I'm launching on Tuesday.

I thought that you might like to see an sneak peek from the One Day Special?

The background has been created using the smallest die in Sue's Stitched Square Peg Board Die Set. It's easy to extend the design by slotting the end row or 2 back into place and cutting again. I've cut it out of Coconut White Card, matted onto Primrose Card and another piece of Coconut White.

I cut dies #3 and #4 from Sue's Jennifer Die Set out of Primrose Card and just die #4 out of Coconut White Card. I glued the 2 die cuts together and added them to my background using CE Mounting Cushion.

I built up a cake on a stand out of Coconut White, Primrose and Gold Mirror Card using Sue's Make a Cake Die Set. I coloured the flames on the candles using Mustard Seed and Spiced Marmalade Distress Markers.

I cut Sue's Alphabet Grid out of Primrose Card twice and Coconut White Card twice ( I needed two 'O's). I added my sentiment using CE Mounting Cushion under each tile.

I completed my card by adding a 5mm White Pearl to each corner.

Thanks for stopping by.
