hi fellow bloggers - I treated myself to a set of framelits by sizzix from hobbycraft this week as I had seen them befoe and thought they were a bit reminiscent of Rennie McIntosh designs. I have made a sympathy card with them by using the middle as a mat to stamp an image on and also because I wanted a solid image on the sides to look like embossing I put tape on the back to hold the pieces that would normally come out. I also cut the sides off the ornate cross to use as corner embellishments I have used:
- centura pearl white card
- sizzix framelits set Ironwork frame
- a docrafts cross stamp from their set for confirmations
- versamark ink
- gold embossing powder
- graphite double faced satin ribbon
- sizzix ornate cross
Hi Bea, that framelet makes me jealous - super! Such an elegant card - love how you used the borders. I used to love Hobby Craft when we stayed in London... Sorry that I have not been visiting, am still travelling.
