Stamp - Penny Black  – Flourish Birthday

 Foam Pads – Scrapbook Adhesivesby 3L

Brad – own stash

Create a card from cream cardstock 6 x 5".  Select your patterned paper, cut into panels - the largest measuring 3½ x 5" and two strips of 1 x 5".

Cut/emboss decorative strips and smaller elements from matching cream cardstock in 

the Grand Calibur die cutting machine®.

Using Spellbinders craft foils, gold – cut/emboss the pendant.

A useful tip is to insert the brad while the foil is still in the die template; it holds it firmly in place.

Stamp a sentiment to bottom of card.  Begin to layer up your panels inserting the decorative strips 

and two strips of gold foil too.

You can see from this picture the layering and how wonderfully realistic the gold foil looks.

Finally add a row of five of the smaller decorative elements and attach your pendant using foam pads.

These die lend themselves to all sorts of projects, here I have chosen to use them to create a notebook.  They layer so well and the decorative strip looks superb the other way up too!
