Thanks to Rose Applegate a quick and easy make today - die cutting, heat embossing, layering. I slipped when die cutting the sentiment so trimmed round it and added a plain background

Stamps: *day to celebrate

Accessories: *glittered bakers twine, *woven threads sequins

 

* = no longer available, when using layering dies (1) is the smallest

1. Start with a base card 14.5 x 21 scored at 10.5, layer one 10.2 x 14.2, dsp layer 10 x 14, scrap pieces of blackberry bliss & basic white
2. adhere the dsp to layer one using liquid glue then attach to the base card using dimensional pads
3. ink up the sentiment with versaMark and then blackberry blisss before stamping, add the embossing powder and heat set
4. die cutting the label
5. trim round the sentiment and adhere to the label using liquid glue
6. wind the bakers twine and attach to the back of the label using sticky tape (seal +)
7. attach to the base card using dimensional pads
8. add the sequins using mini glue dots

Seem to have lost my mojo at the moment and need to get a few cards done quickly so casing at the moment.

4. adhere the dsp to the centre panel using liquid glue
5. cut a slot of about 11cm, 2 thirds of the way down the central panel
6. make a notch on the right hand side the punch, then close the card and make a corresponding one on the back side
7. using the 9.2 x 14 piece stamp the internal sentiment and plane on the right hand side 
8. score the 2.54 x 6 in half, and slot it into the slit on the left hand side
9. adhere the circle to the half showing on the front using liquid glue

I wanted my card to stand up so I cut a piece of real red cs 6 x 14.5 scored at 1cm,

then punched the notch and adhered it the back of the card.
