Another fun evening with the girls making cards!!!! For our first card I created these simply elegant ones!! I cut the frame out of white cardstock. In order to be efficient I laid out the tag for the next card in the center of the frame which made the off cut useful. I created registration marks on my magnet sheet for the Big Shot and positioned my rectangle Nestibility so it would cut out a frame in the way that I wanted. I left space on the bottom so that the girls could gold emboss the greeting of their choice from the Sincere Salutations set (SU). That was a new experience for all of them so we had a few practice runs and everyone managed to get their greeting well embossed. I ran the tracing wheel around my frame before I added the decorative paper behind the opening and glued this layer to my coordinating card front. We then added our coordinating gold die cuts using white glue in a fine tip applicator to ensure a neat finish. The leaf is Tim Holtz and the dragonfly is Spellbinders. Very happy with these elegant cards!! Therese
