Hello everyone, and for those of you who know me welcome to our first tuesday make for 2021. Hope you're all well and ready for a little project.
Today I've made this little card using the wonderful dies called 'Pierced Blooms' there are 25 dies within this set and they are all so beautiful to use, especially the very delicate little bow which I think is exquisite and finishes projects off perfectly. I've used the Mini Stampin' cut and emboss machine for this project today as all the dies used fit through it, which means I can have the machine sitting right next to me, as it doesn't take up too much room........ LOVE IT!!!!!
Two things to remind you all about, first don't forget for the month of January through till February 28th saleabration is on and for every £45 order placed you can get yourself a free product, plus there is an option of a £90 order, where there are a few other products which you can get and I've actually used one of these today for my sentiment and the inside of my card (A touch of Ink) but I've only used 2 small stamps from this delightful stampset, there is actually 17 in total (keep an eye on my blog as I will be making a few projects with the set). The second thing I'd like to remind you of is if you join Stampin' Up during saleabration not only can you get yourself £130 worth of products all of your own choice for only £99, but you will also get yourself 5pks of dsp - grand total of 200 6" x 6" sheets for absolutely free..... yes FREE. I'd love it if you joined my team and started enjoying the discount you get being a demonstrator. Please do contact me if you would like any further information about joining, I'm here to help if needed.
Now on with the project...........

Card recipe
1. Cut, score and burnish your cardbase.
2. Cut the dsp and the 2 x white pieces, glue the one piece flat to the reverse side of the dsp and then stamp the small dotty image around the edge of the other piece and then glue this piece to the inside of your card, leave the other piece to one side.
3. Die cut the 3 stitched rectangles and glue them altogether like below.
I use the grid paper -130148 to first mark where I'm going to be glueing my larger rectangle.
I place a small amount of glue into the corner of the smaller rectangle (you don't want too much glue as it will squeeze out the edges when you put it through your machine in the embossing folder) and attach the larger rectangle to it.
then I turn it around and do exactly the same on the other corner using the markings on the grid paper to guide me.
Place this into the embossing folder and then run it through your machine giving you a really lovely finished piece for the front of your card.
4. Cut out the 3 pieces of highland heather cardstock and glue them to the reverse of the embossed piece. Glue the large one first, making sure you have equal borders showing from the front and then glue the 2 smaller ones onto the back again making sure you have equal borders again on the front.
