Anyway - this is a card I made yesterday afternoon with one of my new Spellbinders dies. I lurve this Fancy Lattice - it may be my favourite one (for the time being - lol). I got the idea the night before as I was trying to get to sleep - if I can't drop off, I try to think of ideas for cards. Nine times out of ten I end up with no ideas and no sleep - typical. As usual, hubby took a few pics this morning and I am putting three of them on here for you to check out.
I put the middle vertical strip on foam pads to give a little bit of dimension.
I stamped with message with Coffee Archival ink and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer Clear embossing powder.
I was quite pleased with this one, I love the browns and tans with the white - let me know what you think about it. I have half of the piece of Fancy Lattice card left so I am thinking that I must use it up - simply because it is soooo gorgeous.

Hi Sue,
ReplyDeletefantastic card, love the colours and the lattice die makes the card so effective. A very striking design.
My kitchen looks out on the front of my bungalow not the back garden so I don't get distracted when making my breakfast, but I am always in need of good doorstop. You haven't by any chance got any.lol.
Have a wonderful crafty evening and tomorrow everyone.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
Ohh!! This is beautiful!! Gorgeous!!! Love the lattice framework!!

Gorgeous card. I bought this die recently. It cuts much more easily if you have a cuttlehug (a thin metal plate) You still have to wind it through twice but much easier than paper shims.
ReplyDeleteWOW! This is wonderful Sue. I love that lattice die and the way you have used it is so inspiring. The colours and layout are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteHugs Sue
I've just had a giggle! When I took my first glance at your card I didn't have my specs on (I need them to read) and I thought your buttons were spiders!!!! I thought you were doing an early Halloween!! I love that lattice die! It really is gorgeous. And a lovely card too. love and hugs from Christine x
ReplyDeleteWow, a fabby card Sue, Love the latticework die and the colours are just perfect! Sure we aren't sisters? I also lie and think of card making ideas if I can't get to sleep - it always makes me drop off into the land of nod, and I too never seem to come up with any earth shattering ideas. So this one you thought up whilst wide awake I guess :( Hugs, Di xx
ReplyDeleteHi Sue what a gorgeous card Ilove your new lattice die. I often think of ideas for card throughout the night as I don't always sleep well but come morning can I remember - no way!!

ReplyDeleteHi Sue, another stunning card, I love this lattice die, I can see so many uses for it. I too think about cards as I drop off to sleep, I also wake up in the night thinking about them too... sad or what.
