Thanks

Our concert of the Armed Man by Jenkins on Saturday evening was truly a memorable experience. The lighting, film footage and general atmosphere, plus the superb direction of our conductor all contributed to something very special. The choir sang beautifully and the whole occasion ended with a standing ovation which in itself spoke volumes.
Here is a simple die-cut card using Memory Box and Simon Says Stamp dies. Each little floret has a tiny, flat, black gem in the centre. As always I stick double sided tape onto the back of the cardstock before die-cutting so that all I need to do once cut, is to peel and press. This is particularly useful with fine fiddly dies like these!
AAA Cards - Thanks

  1. Lovely crisp card Chrissie. Love the added detail of the gems in the centre of each floret, gives definition without spoiling the clean lines. Thanks for the tip about adding double sided tape before die cutting. Great to have you join us again at AAA Cards.
