Happy Sunday,
Don't forget that the One Day Special continues with me today on Hochanda TV at 9am, 12pm, 4pm and last chance at 7pm. This card works perfectly for the shows as well as for the Creative Expressions design team inspiration.
I used the section of orange blossom products for this card which are part off the Design Team stash this week as well as the Cathedral background that Ive got on the show so a perfect match!
I used the Corvus mini gemini die to make the side panels of this card and I will be demoing this technique with Polished Silk Glitter later today on Hochanda.
For the main element I used the centre panel form the Cathedral background ( you all know by now my addiction to Sue Wilson's background dies as they are so versatile) This one is split with the central oval also having 2 outline dies which makes a simple but really effective frame.
I stamped the orange blossom leaves in white detail embossing powder form Cosmic Shimmer on spearmint card and cut them out with the matching die ( thee would be really hard to cut by hand so the dies are a must for me at least) I then cut the larger orange blossom flowers form coconut white foundation card and added the open petals dies cut in spearmint to make a different flower again.
A few PVA pearls in graceful mint and cosmic pearl to finish along with a stamped sentiment, form my pierced flags set, onto white and cut with the pierced flags die and a matching larger flag cut in spearmint.

Enjoy...

Hi John. I have just been watching you on TV and am looking forward to the 12:00 show. I love the Cathedral die and have just been playing with it to see how many different cards I can make with it so I am looking forward to seeing all the things that you can come up with. Love today's card.
ReplyDeleteLisbeth
Morning John, I enjoyed watching you on TV this morning, I had to chuckle at the end when you commented that you use Cosmic because you don't want things falling off, then you lifted up your card and what you had just glued started to fall off, wasn't that a 'just typical' moment !! Your demo's were fabulous, and I love how you explain everything for us and give us lots of tips to help us with our crafting.
ReplyDeleteLots of love from Patricia xx
Hi John - a beautiful card today! I love the colour too! Must fly - you're on in 5 mins! Hugs Gilly R x
