Cable Knit Sweater Card

Hello, hello.  Once again I'm going to showcase the Cable Knit embossing folder.

If you go to Pinterest, you will find all kinds of cards using this embossing folder and they are making them into "Ugly Sweater" cards!!  I'm going to be offering a local class to people and let them design their own ugly sweater cards, sounds like a lot of fun!!  Heck, a whole class on making sweaters would be great, think guy cards too.

Now the vision I had for this card was different, but I think I saved it so that I can mail it off to someone.  Kind of reminds me of a "Grandma Sweater" too.

I used once again the Pink Flamingo card stock for this card.  I did use half of a retired Paper Doily but the new ones will look great too!  I also used some of my bigger retired pearls for the buttons.  I did mount the card front onto some Blushing Bride card stock to make it look like flesh.


Next time I would make the Cable Knit the same size as the card base, but for my first try, it's not too bad!

Don't forget that selected Designer Series Paper is now buy three and get one free until October 31, 2016!

Hope to see you again soon, and thank you for coming by!  Mary

Cable Knit Embossing Folder Christmas Card

Good Monday afternoon to all of you.  I'm kinda of slow with the post today, had a rough week-end and just trying to re-coup from it.

I saw a card over on Linda Dalke blog using this embossing folder and Pink Flamingo card stock.  It goes really well with Rich Razzleberry and Crumb Cake too.  I decided to make it into a Christmas card.  I lightly sponged the embossing with some Pink Flamingo ink to highlight that more.

I used one of the Metallic Foil Doilies and some Gold Metallic Thread behind my sentiment, which comes from the stamp set Holly Berry Happiness.  I sprinkle around a few Gold Sequins too.


I really like this color combination, it is so pretty in person!

Thank you for stopping by!  Mary
