Hooray! I finally got a new card made...summer is seriously messing with my crafting time! This easy little square card was created because I had been thinking of the Poem by Christopher Marlowe..you know, it starts "Come live with me and be my love"...anyway I have always loved the first two lines and decided it would be great on an Anniversary card...so, here it is:
I had just bought myself a Cuttlebug for embossing (love it!) and was messing around and decided to use my Damask Decor Cartridge to cut out the paper I had embossed. I think it gives it a cool look. Here is the supply list:
- 4 1/2 inch square card
- Cardstock by Coredinations and patterned paper by K & Company
- red stipe and black stripe baker's twine
- VersaMagic Ink in Brick Red
- metal dots from JoLee's
- Words were done on the computer
That's it , it was pretty simple. The hardest part of the damask decor cart is always gluing down the image...it is like a piece of lace. I use a spray adhesive from 3M that is photo safe and it works great. Thanks for taking time to check in! I always love hearing from you so comment away and If you are not a follower I would love to have you....I am almost to 50 WOW! Have a great Day! Hugs!
