Hello everyone, today I have a filigree card to show you , which to be honest I did struggle with. I looked at quite a few different ways of doing this card on You Tube, but found the way of folding the card down at the top about half an inch too difficult. No matter how I tried the card stock was too thick to cut through with the die. It would cut one part ok, but not the middle. So I found one way of doing it by using Spellbinders Labels 8. You use the Labels 8 as the card, then add the filigree die cut part onto the top.....taa dahh ! There are other ways I'm sure so need to do a bit more research.
So I used Spellbinders Labels 8 for the card, a Spellbinders Nestabilities for the filigree part then a Sue Wilson die, Caribbean Island die for the centre of the card. I made the large pink flower using white coffee filter papers an popped a ditsy rose in the middle.
Here's a closer peep at the flowers and the die cuts that I used. I added the word LOVE in silver.
This is the inside of the card, where you can perhaps work out how I used the Labels 8 die
Thank you for stopping by, until my next posting, take care xx
