Yippee its Friday.
Its time for a challenge at Daring Cardmakers. Kathy is our lovely host this week and would like to see string, fibres or thread used on your card in a creative way.
I decided to make a wreath using some string.
I looped the string round a few times then stuck it to my embossed card stock. The embossing folder I used is by Tammy Tutterow called blistered from Spellbinders. I just added a little bit of white ink to the edges as I thought it was just to much grey.
For the little details on the wreath I used the Die D-Lites Springtime set from Spellbinders. I just used the little butterfly and flower.
I then added the greeting using some copper mirror card and used the Shapeabilities Simply Said Phrase 2 die set from Spellbinders.
I finished with a few sequins as I love my sparkle.
Thanks for stopping by and don't forget to stop by the Design Team Blogs at Daring Cardmakers for more lovely inspiration.
Full details of all the products I have used can be found over at Spellbinders.
The grey backdrop looks really stylish Dawn and the texture of the wreath is fab!
ReplyDeleteOoh I love this Dawn, fabulous design and I love the wreath. Must keep this is mind when autumn comes, if you don't mind. Cathy x
ReplyDeleteI don't mind at all, glad to inspire you. x
DeleteBelieve it or not, a string wreath was what I had in mind when I added this challenge to our calendar. You were quick off the mark and beat me to the actual making of it though!!! I really love it, and am pleased to see how well it works. Love the embossing too
