Cracking on with my Christmas cards this week. (Liking the alliteration there?). Simple strips woven together, nice & easy I thought. Hmmnn. Took a lot more thinking about than I anticipated. In the end I made 2 template banners - one with 4 vertical hearts at measured intervals, one with 4 horizontal hearts - & used those to make sure my hearts were in the right place. Only THEN was it simple!
The woven part is adhered to the card base with differing thicknesses of sticky pads, to accentuate the texture.

LOVE! Such warm texture and colours - great idea to stick the sentiment out like that!
ReplyDeleteI really like the homey feel of this. Did you use felt for the strips?
ReplyDeleteHi Toni. No, it's not felt, just card, but the kraft strips are thinner than the red ones, so they bend easily for the weaving. Jenny
DeleteOh, I love your weaving! This looks terrific!
