Challenge #137 over at Drunken Stampers is to create a card using twine.
A half dozen of these is my "go to" hostess gift. Clean and simple, with a nice personal touch.
Confession time. I cheat. I use adhesive vinyl for the white circle and the letters. On my cutter, I cut the circle, and then cut the letter inside the circle. I place the letter onto a colored circle of cardstock, and the vinyl circle on a die cut scallop. The vinyl has a bit of shine, and I never have glue goobers. And no one is the wiser...
Twine is We R Memory Keepers Sew Easy Fancy Floss. Cuttlebug embossing folders. 1/2" corner chomper. Card size is A2. Font is Lucinda Handwriting. I doubt I will use this font again for the letter "B", I think it looks too much like Barbie!
Those cards are very elegant! I love that you use these as a hostess gift! Thanks for joining us at Drunken Stampers!
ReplyDeleteLove the use of the embossing folders- and love your confession! It is not cheating- it is just being really clever with the tools you have! I did not even think of Barbie until you said it- I think it is a great font and very sophisticated cards! Thanks for playing along with the Drunken Stampers!!!
