Friday Die Day

Hello friends

Brhhh - it is truly winter now, I returned to my London job

yesterday and even in the city it was -4! 

I prepared this week's Friday Die Day with my cabin heater 

running on high!

This week it is Lisette Oval, one of Becca Feeken's lovely designs.

It is a 6 piece die set and the approximate measurements are:

Large Oval 4.25 x 5.50 in. 10.80 x 14.00 cm
Large Pattern Oval: 4.05 x 5.25 in. 10.30 x 13.30 cm
Medium Oval 2.70 x 3.60 in. 6.90 x 9.10 cm
Slat Pattern: 2.50 x 3.40 in. 6.40 x 8.60 cm
Small Oval: 1.65 x 2.55 in. 4.20 x 6.50 cm
Accent: 1.40 x 1.40 in. 3.60 x 3.60 cm

I created a tri-fold card and positioned the largest oval inset die 

to the far right for partial die cutting.

By keeping the cutting plate in line with the scored line 

it cut just a section of the oval.

I then die cut the mid size oval and insert die from the same ivory card 

and chopped off a little bit! 

Attaching Anna Griffin patterned paper inside.

Returning to my card front, attaching the snipped mid size oval die cut.

I then used the smallest oval in this set and the reverse of the patterned paper

for the centre piece.  Again, chopped a section (it does look like an egg!)

and stamped 'thank you' to the middle.  All held in place with 3D Foam Squares.

The finished card with the addition of twine and inked little flowers and leaves.

This shows the patterned paper inside.

I can't help myself - just adore little flowers!

Lisette Oval is available on the website here,

on sale too! 

The Anna Griffin foiled paper is available in paper packs here.

3D Foam Squares available here. 

I'm off to Crafts Plus in Basildon tomorrow

and Sunday I'm hoping to get my sewing machine out to do another 

quilting panel, that's the plan or I may just be staring at snow! 

Take care friends and keep those mittens on!
