Welcome Friends! I am so excited to be taking part

As the licensed designer for these dies, it is my pleasure to introduce
the Newest Card Creator Dies!

Here is my first project I created with the new
Locking Loops Dies.

Be sure to read all the way thru for
 instructions and a video for creating this card.

Supply List:

Spellbinders A2 Locking Loops S5-175

Spellbinders Classic Squares Large S4-126 (Die #2)

Spellbinders M-Bossabilities EL-004 Imperial

Cindy Echtinaw Designs Spellbinders Matching Clear Stamps

Tim Holtz Distress Inks in Black Soot and Walnut Stain

I started with an A2 Black Card Base.  Then cut and embossed all dies
as listed in my Supply List

Layer Locking Loops dies as show onto A2 Card Base

Take M-Bossabilities Imperial folder and open flat. Lay
Spellbinders A2 Matting Basics B S5-132 (Die #3) in the die with cut side up
place a Tan embossing mat & Raspberry spacer plate over top and run thru Grand Calibur it will emboss the design inside but not the edges as shown

Take Distress ink and Ink blending
tool and ink over raised embossed design leaving card stock in die.

Take Distress inks and ink grosgrain white ribbon and attach to center of black ribbon using Scor-Tape. Feed ribbon thru Locking Loops Ribbon die then attach to
embossed piece. Use pop dots to attach to card front.

Stamp Sentiment onto Square Die and add pearls.
I colored my pearls using white pearls and Copic marker 100 .

the Locking Loops dies.
