That's two days in a row, but I did think that as I was around I really ought to show my card for this week's challenge of lace at Bah! Humbug!.
I used my new lacé die to create a centre piece. The double sided card I used is some I have had for some time and is a stunning peacock blue on one side and silver on the other just perfect for lacé work. Don't know about anyone else but I still have the brass templates for doing this technique by hand. I was never quite good enough with the craft knife and mine always looked a bit tatty, but these dies make it so easy. Having said that I don't think I would want to pay the full price for one and am so glad that my local craft store always has some good bargains.
It's a shame that there isn't much space left in the middle of the die cut. I found it hard to find an image small enough to go in the centre so in the end I just added a small snowflake and left the card very simple. I don't think it needed masses of embellishments. I will add a Christmas verse to the inner sometime soon.
Gonna disappear again for a while now.
Do pop over to Bah! Humbug! to take a look at what the rest of the team have created.
Love and smiles.
