Hi Everybody,
My most recent post showed a card I made from Jennifer McGuire's video on Tulle Shaker Window Cards. Here's a link to that post and it has a link to her video, http://cardsbyregina.blogspot.com/2017/05/jennifer-mcguires-tulle-window-shaker.html
I made a second one using a yellow card stock by Gina K Designs called Sweet Corn and I embossed the sentiments in gold. I finished the card up and discovered there was a HOLE in the TULLE!! Luckily the hole wasn't very big and it was near the edge of the window. Well, guess what, I fixed it! I can't believe I was able to save this card. I put 3 layers of 1/4" scor-tape going different directions over the hole, then I placed a large foam square over the scor-tape and then placed a large flower over that. So, learn from me my little grasshoppers lol.
I know people always say you can always fix a mistake on a card somehow but a hole in tulle?? I never thought I would be able to fix that.
For my card today with the gold embossing, I used the stamp set from Casual Friday Stamps called Pretty Posies. I inked up the flowers with Tim Holtz inks, Ripe Persimmon, Abandoned Coral, Spiced Marmalade and Fossilized Amber. The leaves are inked with Tim Holtz, Twisted Citron and Mowed Lawn. I used Stampendous Detail Gold Embossing Powder. Supply list for second card is on my previous post, link at top of this one.
I hope you liked my cards and my fix for a hole in tulle. I hope you'll try to make this card, it is a lot of fun for sure!
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!

Good job at improvising to cover the hole. I never would have known if you hadn't said anything. It's a beautiful card!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous shaker card design and a great save too! It looks like you planned to do it this way right from the very beginning. Love the colors you used too.
