No it isn't your eyes going funny, I had to straighten the card and this is the result but a bit rushed to change it now.
Since I thought I was having a free weekend I thought I would take the Stretch your Dies Class really as an experiment too. I really don't have patience watching someone take ages to make a card when I could be making one myself.
Actually they're not that bad and they even teaching this old dog a few new tricks like my fuzzy one which is using fun foam. Although after sticking the word a few times I purposely decided I had run out (I hadn't) and put the card together. Now if I need a white sentiment no more layering a couple of the diecuts just cut out in fun foam.
There was a second card but I didn't really have the type of word type that would work with this, well thats my excuse. But I did inlay this sentiment from Penny Black for the third card.
My cards are very similar to class ones since time is short this week now we are doing a flying visit to MIL but I had a hour to spare and foolishly thought I could make a couple of cards.
I shall miss the eclipse as well today, I shall either be in the car or in the leisure centre swimming at least I shall be able resist looking at it. Although the weathermen have confirmed that we will have too much cloud cover to see it now.
Gorgeous cards Debby, the fun foam gives such a great effect and the inlay sentiment look wonderful too.

ReplyDeleteI share your pain, I'm taking the same class and just don't have any of the right dies! Ha! Love your cards, great results!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous cards. I used foam a few years ago and found that some makes of it will actually shrink. Just carefully heat with a gun, keeping it moving al the time. It does burn quite easy! Hugs, Carol S.xx
