Hi Everyone
I hope your Saturday has been good.
The weather was lovely for my "happy couple" today .. .. yay!!!
Not brilliant sunshine .. .. you can't really expect that in the middle of November can you .. .. but it was dry and certainly wasn't cold or windy!! What more could you want?
Whilst doing a bit of Christmas shopping for a crafty little friend today I saw these little aperture cards .. .. not worked with any of these since I used to do my cross-stitch cards "many" years ago .. .. but when I looked at them my one and only Memory Box die sprang into my mind with this little idea .. ..
This used:
Sentiment: Hobby Art Clear "CS010D" Town House Scene-Its
Memory Box Die: Modern Landscape Border
Not sure where the snowflake backing paper has come from but if I find out I will add it
My Trusty Sewing Machine
White Gel Pen
Ribbon, snowflake and embellishment from my Stash Box
For some reason one of my photographs didn't want to align properly tonight no matter what I did with it .. .. so patience went out of the window and I have deleted it!! Serves it right!!! LOL!!!
I'll catch you again tomorrow with my snippets.
Have a lovely evening.
Love

Hi Jules, I think this is really cute! I know what you mean about the cross stitch cards, that's when I used aperture cards too. Oh, by the way,I got my cupcake die today, just haven't got to use it yet! Thanks for the advice Kx
ReplyDeleteFantastic Jules, I have a load of aperture cards too from my cross stitching days. Some food for thought :) Love the image and colours - gorgeous as always! Ha, I just had to go back and search for the heart - sneaky today :) Love, Di xx

Oh yes - what a great way to use up those aperture cards. I've got some oval ones stash away somewhere - only ever used a couple. Forgot they were there. That memory box border is perfect for the little framed scene.
