Happy Trails with the Couture Creations Tatted Lace Doily Die

Hi, Kerrie Gurney here with a step by step tutorial for CSW Distributors using the Couture Creations Tatted Lace Fantasia Doily Die and Couture Creations Embossing Folders.

Cut a piece of patterned paper to 12" x 7," cut the bottom into a scroll shape, distress the edges, ink with black ink pad and adhere to the base cardstock.

Die-cut the Tatted Lace Doily Die from patterned paper. Notice how easy the paper comes away from the die using Couture Creations Ejection Foam on the die.

Cut the Tatted Lace doily in half diagonally.

Cut a piece of patterned paper to 8" x 8," distress the edges and ink. Fold in half, and place the patterned paper into the Extra Confetti Embossing Folder, from the Elegance Collection, and run through machine.

Turn the patterned paper around and emboss the end piece. This will give your patterned paper some texture. One side will be embossed and one side will be debossed, adding more interest to your background.

Unfold the patterned paper and adhere to your page.

Cut a piece of cork to 1.5" x 12" and emboss using the Magical Embossing Folder from the Fresh & Fun collection.  Lightly rub a black ink pad over the surface of the cork strip to highlight the embossed pattern.

Adhere to cork strip to the page using Couture Creations Double Sided Tape.

Adhere both halves of the Tatted Lace doily to your page. Adhere the photo to the page using Couture Creations Foam Mounting Tape on only 3 sides of the photo, leaving the top open to slide in a 4" x 6" journaling tag.

Add Couture Creations Cafe Creme Pearls under the cork strip to finish the page.
