Friday Die Day

Hello friends

For this week's Friday Die Day I'm sharing some wine with you...

well, a Wine Country collection die set so sort of!

This is Frame Charms.

8 dies in the set and the approximate measurements are:

Square Frame: 2.00 x 2.00 in 5.10 x 5.10 cm
Circle Frame: 1.90 x 1.90 in 4.80 x 4.80 cm
Rectangle Frame: 1.60 x 2.20 in 4.10 x 5.60 cm
Rod: 0.30 x 4.80 in 0.80 x 12.20 cm
Finials (2): 0.80 x 0.80 in 2.00 x 2.00 cm
Leaf 1: 0.60 x 0.70 in 1.50 x 1.80 cm
Leaf 2: 0.50 x 0.60 in 1.30 x 1.50 cm
Grapes: 0.70 x 1.20 in 1.80 x 3.00 cm

I chose to make a card using two of the frames.
First, from ivory card die cut a rectangle using Scored and Pierced Rectangles.

Leaving the die cut inside the die, I stamped using a script design,

you will see it has gone across the die (easily wiped off with a damp cloth).

This gives me the image but not over the edge.

I did not want to cover up the piercing.

I added some more stamped images (Just Rite Stamp - Greetings from Paris)

and used distress ink to the edge along with die cutting two of the frames,

again adding some distress ink to the edges.

I die cut grapes and vine leaves, then coloured with inks.

Assembling my card - threading twine through the frames,

fixing in place with 3D Foam Circles.

Securing on the reverse with Crafty Power Tape and matting onto burgundy cardstock.

Inside the frames I stamped the square and rectangle fall out piece. 
Mounted onto a larger card base.

It was then a case of adding the leaves and grape clusters along

the twine and stamping a sentiment.

The finished card.
