saturday crafting with sissix

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
