Friday Die Day (Early!)

Hello friends

I got back from tellyland yesterday afternoon.
Really enjoyed my Spellbinders shows featuring the 
certainly had a giggle! 
I was asked if I would be sharing my telly projects here
on my blog and yes, as soon as I get to photograph them all.

Today I do have one up and ready to go and that is Floral Tiara Topper.
A 5 piece die set and the approximate measurements are:
Outer Cut: 5.50 x 2.15 in. 13.90 x 5.50 cm
Pattern: 5.20 x1.90 in. 13.20 x 4.80 cm
Beaded: 5.55 x 2.15 in. 14.10 x 5.50 cm

I'm really addicted to drop shadowing the die cuts so I've cut
two from silver foil card and two from white card.
Affixed the white over the silver.


I then die cut flowers and coloured them with Aged Mahogany Distress Ink.
The flowers are Cinch and Go III.


I chose to make a BIG card, an 8 x 8 card base with silver foil
mats and coloured paper.


Positioned and placed the two die cuts.


Added a piece of scrunched/folded ribbon, held in place with 3D Foam Squares.


Also using 3D Foam Squares attached the flowers and sentiment.


Added pearls to the centre of each flower to finish,
something I had a little trouble with on the telly as my eyes were just not good!
The finished card...quite a few photos!





I'm doing FDD blog post early as I'm going to have some eye surgery
today and not sure what I'll be seeing afterwards, hopefully it 
will be a whole new world! 

Items used today with clickable links:


The whole Vintage Treasures Collection can be found here.

Big thanks for all the support, I'm due back at Hochanda for
some more shows soon and I'll keep you posted.

Take care friends.
