Birthday card for a fellow crafter

Hello Everyone
Thank you for coming and a big Hi to Pam, welcome to the dance! I had scheduled this post because I  had a hospital appointment, that knowing how it normally runs could take all afternoon! Well it did and the scheduling didn't work. Hey Ho!

I had some very upsetting news on Tuesday afternoon that a dear friend had unexpectedly and suddenly died. I was devastated. In a later post I will explain who she is and why she means so much to me
A quick explanation of Tuesday's post in that I probably made it sound more complicated than it actually was.  All I did was cut the smaller die in the centre of a piece of card knowing that the decorative die cut (in black) would cover the hole! A die cut or stamped sentiment can be placed on the smaller piece. I just aligned my text to be in the centre first. Apart from the black, it only took a 4.5 inch square of patterned card

Todays card

I made this card for a fellow crafting friend who makes the most exquisite quilts. It is made up of "materials" from Serif. I coloured them all purple. The tape measure is an embellishment from Serif (sorry but I do love my Serif kits). All I did was die cut 1.5" squares and piece them together

Ingredients

6x6" card blank

Spellbinders Large Squares die set

Serif kits including Knitty Gritty

Sue Wilson 3D plain bows

Becca Feakin Filigree Delights die set

I need to make a Birthday card for a fellow Salsa dancer for Friday and sadly a Sympathy card.

I'll be out dancing on Friday night, my daughter is teaching a Rueda class - a type of Salsa that's brilliant fun!

See you all Saturday
