WONDERFUL WEDNESDAY - PROJECT DAY

Good morning all.

WOW!  What fast moving shows they were weren't they?  Poor Adam, I don't think I have ever seen him look that flummoxed before!  Every time he went to do an update, they gave him another update in his ear.  And did you see Lisa's face every time they did stock updates?  Bless her - she always looks so shocked.

On behalf of Lisa and Danny can I just say thank you so much for always being so supportive of Lisa's brand and her product.  As a Design Team we are always blown away by what she brings but that doesn't mean everyone else will be the same does it?  So it is most gratifying that you all think the same as we do and that you love the product as much as you do.

I know that Lisa was exhausted after today's shows, 7am is such an early start and it was fast paced all the way through and 11am didn't seem to slow down much either did it?

I hope you all managed to purchase those extra 3D Embossing Folders too?  Weren't they simply brilliant?  For all those of you who wanted products to use for male cards must be absolutely over the moon, I know I am.

Well, it's Wednesday and we all know what that means don't we?

Yep, it's project day!!

We have another fabulous project from Mary Kelly today.

You will need:

Trailing satin flower stencils/embossing folder and die ( or another other corner of Lisa's may work)

Rustic hessian folder

Bold Phrases

Ultimate

Stencils Brushes

Wonder brushes

White card

Coloured card

LHC Inks of choice  -  I used Tranquil Waters; Sugar Candy; Woodland Moss; Juicy Pineapple 

Glue

Foam pads

Trimmer

Scissors

Step 1: Cut a piece of white card to 8 ½ x 6 inches.  On the long side score at 3/4; 1 1/2; 2 ¼ and 3 inches. Rotate the card 180 ⁰    and repeat the score lines. Fold and burnish all the score lines. The last panel on each side is the tab. Add glue to these and fold in to create a square column at each side of the card.

Step 2: Cut a pink piece of card to 5 ¾ x 2 1/4. Cut a layer to go on top to 5 ½ x 2.  Using the main flower section of the stencil randomly stencil the white layer using Tranquil Water. Add the layers together and apply to the background of the card base between the pillars. 

Step 3: To decorate the pillars at the front and outside cut 4 pieces of pink card to ½ x 5 3/4. Run these through the rustic hessian embossing folder and add to the pillars.

Step 4: Stencil some more of the main flower onto white card using the Tranquil Waters. Cut out a sentiment from this patterned card using the Bold Phrases.

Step5: Stencil, cut and emboss your trailing satin flower.  Attach to the pillar front using foam pads for added depth. Secure the sentiment along the bottom.

What a beautiful project.  Thank you Mary.

And, finally to our words of wisdom.

And on that note, I'll see you on Friday.
