Hello and welcome to this week's Blog Post, and I have news of another +papermilldirect Special Offer for you:
This week it is the White Felt Embossed cardstock, a popular choice as the unique texture lends itself well to all styles of crafting ranging from the clean & simple to spectacular inkiness. A huge Mega Box of this card in A4 size is available at a special price of just £41 whilst stocks last, you'll find it in the Special Offers section of the website (link here:)
The Design Team have been looking ahead to the Wedding season for our makes this week, and I have a 'Save The Date' card to share with you.
The base card has been created by scoring and folding Papermilldirect
‘Ultra White Pearlised’ card and has then been trimmed down to 5” x 7” standard card
size.
I used SVG cutting files from Birds Cards (as always links at bottom of post) to create the
layered ‘Retro Rose Panel’ front, importing into Cricut Design Space
along with the ‘save the date circle’ SVG file. Within Design Space it
was easy to resize and also ‘weld’ the 2 images together
to create a single cut panel piece. The Ultra White Pearlised card cut
very cleanly in my Explore and the delicate sparkle adds a touch of luxury. The decorative panel was backed with the second layer
of the Retro Rose cut file cut in PMD ‘New Lilac’ cardstock.
The sentiment aperture is backed with a square of white vellum, then a
co-ordinating panel of patterned paper (looks a little like confetti) has been attached behind it
secured to the rear of the outer frame of the sentiment, this ensures no
glue is visible through the delicate vellum part. The assembled panel
has been attached to the whole of the card front using strong double
sided tape.
To finish Adhesive pearls in 2 sizes have been added around the sentiment panel.
