Hello, Crafters.
I’m pleased to say that my BOGOF had a good start yesterday, which
made all the effort of correcting it when it went wrong on Friday evening,
worth the very late night!
After the event went live yesterday lunchtime, I was able to do
some crafting and made today’s video.
It was so relaxing, I made two sets of matching cards and
gift pouches before I started recording!
I’m so pleased that it didn’t take long before I felt the stress of
the previous evening melt away, and it became a
long distant memory! LOL!
I made some similar thank you cards for last month’s customers,
and it was the way I did the faux bow that I’d decided I wanted
to share as part of a video.
I first saw the idea several years ago but I can’t
remember who showed it.
To cut the Designer Series Paper (DSP) into 1.25″ squares, and
the Balmy Blue Cardstock (CS) into 1 3/8″ squares, I used two
retired Stampin’ Up! square punches – cheating but so much
easier than actually cutting!
I decided to dry emboss the white layer behind the squares as
I was doing white on white and I knew it would
help it to stand out more.
I used two different arrangements for the pearls I added
to the sentiments i.e. one had three large Basic Pearls and
the other one had two medium pearls with a large
one in-between them.
I wish you a very blessed Sunday,
and until tomorrow, happy crafting.
JanB.
Very sweet and simple project, and such pretty colour selections, all of them! Thank you, Jan … have a wonderful crafting week ahead and all the best on your sale!
Many thanks, Geraldine. We have so many fabulous Designer Series Papers to choose from that gave me great choices of colours to use. ☺ Happy crafting. JanB.
Your project is lovely as ever and I will try it. I never can see the box below for measurements. Where do I look for it? And the thumbs up, where is it? Thank you.
