Spellbinders Emmeline Treillage Tutorial

Hello friends! It is always an honour to share a tutorial for Spellbinders - their inspirational Dies are beautiful to create with and always give a professional look to your cards.  They certainly take the hard work out of card making - as you will see in my tutorial.

Today I am sharing a very quick and easy card - it is so pretty with the gorgeous Card Creator Die by Becca Feeken.  One of the fabulous things about these Dies is it has a filigree insert and a cutting edge - that can be used together or by it self,  I have used the cutting edge ti create a pretty card base as well - you can see how I have done that by following along with me to the end of the tutorial.

1. Cut/emboss one Emmeline Treillage Etched Dies Venise Lace by Becca Feeken using the Platinum 6 and Anna Griffin Inc. paper.

2. Remove the excess pieces using the Tool N One.

3. Cut/emboss two Emmeline Treillage Etched Dies using the cutting edge only and white card stock.

4. Score one Emmeline Treillage Etched Die at 1.5 cm .

5. Fold forward and add double sided tape.

6. Attach the second Emmeline Treillage Etched Die making sure the edges line up - to form card base.

7. Adhere a strip of Scrapbook Adhesives By 3L Adhesive Sheet (approx 5cm) across the centre of the card front and inside front. 

8. Centre lace over the front Adhesive Panel, then around the back of the card front - securing the ends using String red tape.

9. Pop up the Anna Griffin Inc. embellishment using Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L 3D Foam Squares to the lower portion of the card.

10. Trim Want2Scrap Swirls Finesse in white to the desired size, adhere either side of the popped up sentiment.

I told you it was easy didn't I!

• S5-311 Card Creator Emmeline Treillage Etched Dies Venise Lace by Becca Feeken
