Good morning crafty friends
I ordered this die set about a month or so ago and it arrived last week. It's a nephew's birthday this week so a good time to use it
The die set comes in 3 pieces, 2 clock pointers and then the remainder of the large die. In the 'flesh' the card does look very much nicer than the photo depicts, but you know I have an ongoing battle with photographing mirri card lol
Back home again and decided to take one more photo of today's card, in a different light.... what do you think?
New photo!

Much better compared to the one below!
I used an A5 black card base with a smaller panel of silver mirri and finally a smaller panel of black card. I die cut the cogs/clock face once only and secured it onto the two top panels with adhesive and a small brad that I used for the clock pointers. These were then adhered to the card base and I used several of the cog's centres as embellishments
I did think I had a small 'Happy Birthday' die but a quick look proved not to be. A freebie magazine stamp was then used to emboss the sentiment

I'm seeing my rheumatology professor this morning and, hopefully, she will reinstate Methotrexate, I'll keep you informed
INGREDIENTS:
- black cardstock and silver mirri - my stash
- clock/cog die set - unbranded

Hi June this is a stunning card. I love it. Those cogs are amazing. I did use cogs on my son-in-laws card they worked with the image I used. Take care. Hugs Jackie

Brilliant June. I usually make Male cards with cogs on. I did make a 10x8 picture with a clock and cogs on and had it at a craft fair. It sold before the fair opened. Hope you are put back on the tablets. Stitches out tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteThank you Littlelamb
DeleteWOW, wonderful it sold before the fair opened!
Fingers crossed once the stitches are removed it will hurt less for you
