Chocolate Baroque 15 minute card - Baroque Corner



Baroque Corners 15 minute card - Baroque Corner

Hello everyone. Hope life is treating you well.

Today I have a quick make to show you using the beautiful Baroque Corner stamp


 
 
 
Stamp the large design from the  Baroque corners  and trim  down to a 12cm x 12cm. square. ( 4.75 inches)

Slice across the centre of the design  and mount onto a 14 x 14 cm. piece of  black card, leaving a  1cm. gap for the words. ( Amazing Mackintosh Words)

Mount onto  a 15cm. x 15 cm. card blank. ( 6 inches).
 
The card below is the same design in a different colourway. Still prefer the black and white version.

 



Thank you for visiting and I hope you will give this very simple project a go.

These corners are really beautiful for building up patterns, as you may have seen from one of my previous posts.

                                                                          Bye for now

Chocolate Baroque samples



Hello everyone.
Welcome to my blog.

Today I would like to show you some more of my Hochanda samples that I did.

I used the stamps from the Take It or Leaf It  set.  They are great for backgrounds but are also good as the main images.


 
This leaf spray is great for backgrounds but it also makes a lovely little wreath shape when stamped in a spiral.
The flowers are from the Floral Harmony set.
 
 


This is a fairly quick and easy card as the leaves are very easy to cut around.

I made a piece of background paper with Distress inks and then stamped the  leaves and flower heads with black Versafine.

Thank you for visiting.
Happy crafting
Carole
