 This weeks workshop;

On the Edge 

The ladies enjoyed making three different cards created with Edger dies. Edger dies can be used in a multitude off ways, not simply just the edge! 

To start the cards, the ladies first had to get messy and create two of those lovely backgrounds using pixie powders. It was then onto the other background (middle card) which was achieved by blending several Distress Inks onto the card, which were finished of by taking a mask to the cards and using a baby wipe to take off the ink in areas. 

For the first two cards it was then onto, die cutting the seahorse edger and then assembling the different layers. The first card also incorporated a embossed background to add extra texture. 

For the third card a bit more work was required as the edger die was cut from a piece of white card, therefore to achieve the vibrant colours the card was then coloured, using the pixie powder with water to make a paint. A sentiment stamp was also added to finished off the card design.
