thank you for being my bridesmaid


It's time for another recipe challenge at Crafts 4 Eternity.

The sketch.

Thank you card or gift.

File tab.

I am also entering this into the following challenges:

'diecuts': Creative Card Crew.
'you & me': ABC Challenge.


Papers: Tim Holtz ~ Vintage Shabby.

I cut the top layer down one edge with my Tim Holtz ~ File Tab die and cut an aperture for the image with a Nestie.

Image: Magnolia ~ Bride & Bridemaid coloured with copics and added some stickles.

I used my new Magnolia ~ DooHickey dies to cut Tilda's Lace Border out of vellum paper which I distressed with gold. Love this die which is a cool 7 inches long, so no having to join bits together ....


.... and the Vintage Tag, also distressed with gold. The tag is a decent size too, 3.25 x 2 inches roughly. Love how this die also comes with a hole reinforcer die! I've been trying to find some hole reinforcers for ages, now I can just make my own! Love it! I cut the hole out of a scrap of metal ....


Thank you for looking.
