Hi there
We all end up with off cuts of DSP and I never want to throw them out – I always think “I’ll use that one day”. Well I finally had a ‘one day’ :). They’ve ended up on the card below which is now ready to post.
The card base is Early Espresso with a mat of Crumb Cake. The narrow strips are 1.5cm x 13.8cm and the wider strips are 2cm x 13.8cm and are adhered straight onto the Crumb Cake mat leaving a small gap inbetween.
Linen thread works really well with masculine cards. I’ve wrapped the linen around three times starting with the middle line then the cross-overs. I used a separate piece of linen thread through the button (from the True Gentleman button pack) and tied it in a knot before adhering it over the cross-over part with a Glue Dot.
I’d love to hear your ideas of how you use your offcuts up – click on the ‘comments’ at the top of this post.
I’ve got one more project (for now) that uses the Wood Textures DSP so check back tomorrow for a card and 3D gift.
Until then …
Great masculine card! What was the sentiment from?
