Just before I go...

Hello friends

Just before I head off to Surrey to demo today I am sharing a card with you
using Gothic Strip.
I have to admit this die didn't jump out at me at first but once I started
playing with it I thought...oh yes I like it!
I've also used...yes you've guessed it - Marisa's Bouquet (adore the butterflies)
and the label shape is  Labels Thirty Eight.
A leaf from Romantic Blooms One crept in...found it on my craft desk!
Gothic Strip also fits perfectly on a chocolate wrapper :)
Feel free to take a look at the dies in more detail on the website and
you may want to glanced at the pre-loved section, a few more added.

Take care friends, hoping you have a dry weekend -
the rain has stopped here after it bucketed it down yesterday all day!
Bella not impressed!

Hi Christine
I do like how you show us the dies on a card , it gives me a clearer idea on how to use them and also how they actually look { i can't always picture the dies from a packet haha perhaps it is just me ? }.
A lovely card and yes i like this die very much ,another goes on my list .
The sun is shining here too, i do hope it lasts.
Take care

Lovely card, very pretty. Sometimes you need to play about with the diecut to see their potential, don't you? Or even better we look on your blog & see what you make.

Hello Christine
A pretty card today. I too struggle to know what to do with these strip dies (other than a strip!) but your card today demonstrates it beautifully.
It threw it down all yesterday afternoon here but the sun has got his hat on today and all my washing is on the line.
Have a great day in Surrey. I hope the weather doesn't affect your journey.
Take care
Lesley

Another lovely card Christine. The die is nicer than it sounds from its name.

Rained all day here yesterday - but have managed to dry some washing this morning too.

Have a good weekend.

I hope you had a great day I love your card and will definitely be interested in getting Marissa's Bouquet I like the fact there is a variety of shapes Need to fire up lap top Too late in day now I can see what you mean about the Gothic but it looks very effective

This is such a pretty card Christine, really like the die, we had an awful day Friday, it really really rained! Yesterday was beautiful and we got all the new plants we just bought in the ground, in time for another day of heavy rain today! Hope you had a good day yesterday, hugs Carole Z X
