Demoing and Decagon View

Hello friends

Arrived safely in Birmingham and had a brilliant first day demoing 
at the Craft Hobby and Stitch show. 
Here I am showcasing some of Becca's beautiful border dies
and also the new Kaleidoscope collection.


This is one of my sample cards featuring Decagon View.
I positioned the die in the right hand corner of the card slightly off the edge
and embossed only.
My tip here is to always use a reasonable weight cardstock otherwise
you may run the risk of the die cutting through the card.


I then used the die to die cut patterned paper, a paper with a small design
works very well.  I selected certain pieces and affixed them over their matching
embossed shape.


Typed and die cut sentiment to the top and a little Blooms One to finish.

I'm all set for day two at the show and Elliott is with me and will 
be taking some photos of new interesting products which I will 
share with you all tomorrow (because I forgot to do that yesterday!)

Take care friends.
