I use this 9 square pattern a lot on my cards as it is especiallly good when using small stickers and punches.
I don’t think I need tell you how I have made them as the pictures tell the story.
The centre square is set on foam pads for extra dimension.
The puffy stickers are from Accessorize. I have had the small scalloped square punch for years, I think Paperchase sell a lever punch that is almost the same. Dovecraft make boy and girl punches very similar to, if not the same as mine.
To answer Chris G's question in comments - all my dotted lines/faux stitching are done free hand. I like to use the thinnest fine liner pen I can find (005) and just go for it, if it does go a bit wibbly wobbly it just adds to the charm.
Keep going on this post as I have added another one below ......
I love those heart stickers Helen - another couple of fab cards - particularly like the second card.

I think you may have said before, but do you draw your dotted line free hand or do you use a ruler?
ReplyDeleteHad a great time at the Stitch and Creative Crafts exhibition in Manchester yesterday. It is the first exhibition I had been to and was amazed at the sheer variety of what was on display and pleased with some of the prices. I definitely need to save up, and be prepared to stay longer.....
wow I love how you use really simple things to make them look stunning! The girl/boy punches are real cute!
