Have a Beautiful Day!
Been playing with one of my new Tonic circle frame dies. I love to incorporate my sewing in with my card making - so this was my chance to do so. Hope you like the card I made.
To make this card you will need the following Tonic dies :-
1227E Have a Beautiful Day Circle frame die set
1216E Harrop Layering Card blanks die set
191E Thinking of You Essential die set
673N Dandelion Yellow Nuvo Crystal Drops (Gloss)
667N Red Berry Nuvo Crystal Drops (Gloss)
650N Ebony black Nuvo Crystal Drops
Yellow and Red Sewing Cotton
Small sewing needle
White A4 300gsm card
Red 216gsm Weave Textured card
Printed papers from Debbie Moore's 'Floral Boutique' (Papercraftng CD Rom)
Glue and Foam pads
Red and White spotted ribbon
My card I made from the white cardstock with my Harrop Layering Card Blank dies. The size of which is 6" x 6" or 15cms x 15cms. I also cut out my sewing parts with the white card.
Next sew along the outer circle with the red sewing cotton in a running stitch. Sew in the holes on the main die front using the red and yellow sewing cotton. I used a single strand of sewing cotton throughout the design.
From the red cardstock cut your 'Have a Beautiful Day' sentiment, the loopy edge circle and the corner embellishments out.
From your printed papers cut one circle a little larger than the red loopy one out. Then with the Harrop dies cut out a background and a piece for the front of your sewing part to match. A side piece also.
Make a bow with the red and white spotted ribbon.
To make the card up see the photo above. I only used the foam pads in the centre of my matting and layering so it was not too bulky. After I had finished putting the card together I added the Nuvo drops.
Have fun and keep crafting!
