FTL228 Thanks

This is my take on FTL228.  The sentiment is from a Memory Box die and I used a Life Style Crafts embossing folder on the black card stock.  The twine is from The Twinery.

228!

Happy Friday.

I realize that Valentine's Day has now come and past, but I made this card Wednesday night.

My only major tips for this card are to choose a short word as your focal point; 3-5 letters is probably best. And if you'll be die-cutting the letters out, you may want to make use of a magnetic guide. I still have an older one from spellbinders. I used my cuttlebug and used plate A, plate B, a metal shim, the magnetic guide, the dies, then another plate B. It was almost perfect, I could've used maybe a cardboard shim to make it perfect.

Here's the sketch:

Here's my card:

Supplies:

Happy Friday everyone! I hope you're having a good week!

Here's this week's sketch. It is essentially a one layer card. Although I sketched a cake and ended up making my card have a cake, feel free to use some other element (maybe a pile of presents or a tree, something that can be arranged in a classic triangle type shape).

Here's my take on the sketch:

Supplies:
Stamps: Love and Marriage
Ink: Dark Chocolate
Paper: White, various patterned papers,
Accessories, etc.: flower die, oval dies, corner rounder punch, pearl

FTL226 With Deepest Sympathy

Here's my take on FTL226.  I did take a little liberty with the sketch but not too much!  The flowers and sentiment are from the Craft's Meow Hope Blooms set.
