Cookie Cutter meets Cable Knit

Good Morning. Today I am sharing the final make from last weeks Tuesday Club where I featured the wonderful Cable Knit embossing folder. I am loving using this folder for backgrounds on my cards and like many of my customers it wasn't on my original shopping list but I soon changed my mind when I saw all the wonderful projects made with it.

I am also loving this little reindeer and I also am still loving the reaction of my customers when I tell them its the Gingerbread man upside down! They often have to look twice!
Now I would have never used Delightful Dijon as a Christmas colour but I am loving it in the Warmth and Cheer papers so I added it to this card, think it makes a lovely change.
Inside the card got a lot of love as usual but I think I went a little overboard with the stars as there is not much room left to write in the card now!
Thank you to my shoppers who have used this months code so far!

Cardigan Card with Cable Knit folder

Good Morning. I am a little late posting today as I need to get into a routine with my Friday blog post. I would usually write it on a Thursday evening but I am now at Made in Dagenham rehearsals every Thursday and I get home quite late so I'm still trying to get in a routine with that!

This week at Tuesday Club we focussed on the Cable Knit embossing folder and made 3 different projects using it. I have been desperate to make a Cardigan card with the folder after seeing a fab one on Sue Parker's blog HERE. I loved the card Sue did but I made my own template in cms then I saw a lovely Garden Green one on my team member Gill Arnold's Facebook page but I don't think she has blogged it yet. Thanks ladies for your inspiration.
I have to say I LOVE this card and most of my ladies decided to leave the sentiment off to use it when they needed it and choose a sentiment then. It's the perfect card to be able to add that later.
I created the collar and ribbed parts of the card by scoring the card at every 1/8th of an inch on my scoreboard and then everything got inked all over with the Garden Green ink pad.
The buttons I have used are actually retired but they were perfect for the card.
What do you think? Hope you like it!
