It's Friday Die Day and this week I'm featuring Decorative Holly Frame.
This is three piece die set and the approximate measurements are:
Accent: 3 x 1¾”
Centre: 4⅛ x 3”
Frame: 5¾ x 5¾”
This is what it looks like cut/embossed...
and with light bouncing off the mirror card!
I really like the label shape with the pierced edging.
I printed my sentiment onto white card - the font is French Script.
Positioned the centre label die, cut/embossed.
I wanted to add a little decoration, nothing too much to detract from the
ornate frame die.
I used the tiny poinsettia flowers from 5 x 7 Decorative Holly Frame die set -
these are going to be a definite go-to for me - they are adorable!
I matted the frame onto red cardstock cut with 6 x 6 Matting Basics
and then onto a white card front.
I now permanently have all my Matting Basics dies on my craft desk,
I seriously struggle with trimmers!
The finished card - how easy, the ornate die does all the work.
Decorative Holly Frame is available here.
Matting Basics dies including the 6 x 6 ones that I used are available here.
And those tiny poinsettia flowers come from this die set here.
I'm feeling a little overwhelmed by everyone's good wishes
for the shows starting on Monday -
thank you everyone - you are all fab!
Wishing you all a wonderful weekend and take care friends.

Now I have seen your take on it, especially the Poinsettias, I can't wait much longer!
Looking forward to my tv being able to watch you Christine .......it will be such a treat after all this time!
Take care

ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous card this is, very elegant looking, especially using the Miri card. Loving the small pointsettias too. Thank you for this fab FDD.
I love printing on card too, I'll add this lovely font to my ever growing 'favourite font list'!
Not long now until Monday, you must be so excited!
Have a lovely day.

I love it I use the matting basics a lot! When using a trimmer/guillotine you can guarantee at least one if my sides ends up skew-whiff
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card! Love seeing how you did it and using the matting basics! Thanks for showing the die up close!! NOW I am going to have to get one myself!!!! :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous card Christine. The tiny poinsettia is so cute. My big poinsettia is one of my favourite die sets and I think this one would be a fantastic addition.
ReplyDeleteFingers crossed for Monday, knock em dead!!
Take care
