Secret Crafter Saturday Challenge #45 Fancy Corners & 2nd Attempt 365 Card Toile


I really wasn't too pleased with my contrubution for yesterday's challenge from 365 Cards, so when I saw the theme of fancy corners from the Secret Crafter's Saturday Challenge this week, I decided to combine the two and have another go.
I much prefer the black and white background and with it I could use a black silhouette chandelier. (Something I've wanted to do for quite a while.)
The corners are Cuttlebug and I love them, they seem to fit with many styles. The sentiment is Stampin up on a Cuttlebug tag. Even with my DIY Stampamajig it took me about 4 attempts to get it central and straight.
I'm happier with this than I was with my previous attempt at using a 'Touch of Toile'.

    I nearly fell off my chair when I saw your beautiful card, I just LOVE the Toile paper and of course I am rather addicted to chandeliers of late lol. The combination of the image and paper is perfect.
    I laughed when I read your comment on my blog, I kinda had you in mind when I did my step by step guide!! Not exactly a tutorial but it's about the best I can do I think!
    Love Sarita xx
