Now I remember why I put this away!

I’m a week behind with this but here’s my attempt at template 25 from the girlie's over at CPS. Better late than never I suppose.

As I said in my previous post, I’ve decided to get my Pergamano things out again to have a play with but now it’s all come back to me exactly why it was I put it all away in the first place......... Oh boy do I need lots of practice!

Anyway, I needed to make a wedding card for a friend and decided to use the template, although I did turn the squares round at the bottom of the card.



I’ve incorporated two or three different Pergamano templates to make the card and once these were sorted it took me quite a few hours to draw the design in White and Gold ink. Some of the design was embossed and all those little crosses had to be marked out with a pricking tool before being cut out with special curved scissors.

Sue, You are so good at this detailed stuff, it must take you HOURS... I still have a couple of the birthday cards you've made me - they are so beautiful and inspiring.
