Faux Quilted Technique
Here's another card I shared at our April Club Meetings and it was a WOW
I saw this Faux Quilted card on Dawn Griffith's blog and just had to make it!
Actually when I first saw it, I was puzzled – how in the world……
You will be amazed at how it's done!
Measurements
Perfect Plum Card Base 8 1/2" x 5 1/2"
Layer 2 Gold Foil 5 1/4" x 4"
Layer 3 Perfect Plum 5" x 3 3/4"
Picture Tutorial
Using the Perfect Plum 5" x 3 3/4", score on the diagonal
Move your score line over to the 3/4" mark and score again
Do the same with the 2nd score line – move it over to the 3/4" mark and score – all the way across
Turn and score the other side
Now turn the card again and score the opposite way
It should now look like this
Now fold each score line and using a sponge dauber daub Perfect Plum ink on both sides
Do that for all score lines (both ways)
And now you have your background "faux quilt"
If you are using the Gold Foil Sheets, cut out the dragonfly from the center (save paper!!) before adding your quilt to the sheet
Adhere down and then add the Dazzling Details Gold Glitz to each "cross"
You will need to let this dry – take a couple of hours (or use your heat gun!)
I also stamped the sentiment in versamark and gold embossed it on the gold foil sheet!
Very stunning!!
