Co-ordinations Blog Hop



Co-Ordinations Blog Hop 

Today I am sharing a card and tag made with Co-Ordinations cardstock an Couture Creations Dies and folder. I love to use the Doily dies to create lacy edges. This is easily done by 
placing the die and cardstock half off the C plate, so that only one side cuts as pictured below 
step 1


step 2

step 3
This is a nifty way of making slotted cards too 


Next is a cute tag that you can attach to a parcel or card front for someone special.

To create the blue flower, cut the largest die from blue cardstock, then cut into a spiral, curl spiral up and glue in place. Spray with adhesive and sprinkle with white glitter.

  3. I really love your embossed card and tag today. I had no idea that the doily die could be offset to not cut on one side! Brilliant! I'm glad you showed us that! So thank you!
