What a BAD afternoon I was having with this card yesterday. On my monthly mission to make five Christmas cards, everything that COULD go wrong with this, did. First, I put way too many sequins in the window so you couldn't see the sentiment. That card was completely destroyed trying to open the back to get them out. Then, I didn't attach the gold cord properly (it was an after thought) but thought I could hide it with the branches I was planning to use, so kept going. Then Score tape was sticking more to me than the tulle and I almost destroyed another before I switched to my ATG gun. Then this! I incorrectly opened a new bottle of glue of a brand I'd never used before and SPLASH!! A big mess!
I wiped it off and left the Studio for the rest of the day. In the light of a new day, I found it was quite salvageable. The new glue I was using is called "Art Glitter". I was shocked that it wiped up cleanly. Just wrinkled the paper a little where the biggest blob was and dried clear, not at all sticky, as if nothing was ever there. A couple of those sequins will NEVER move but who will know?!! I'm not telling...
But, instead of five for September, there will only be three. I'm okay with that because I am NOT attempting this one again for a long, long time... :)

ReplyDeleteI do love the fact that you used tulle though as it turned out beautifully...but only the most special can receive these cards !!! 😊
ReplyDeleteIndubitably. Blood, sweat and tears went into these... :)
DeleteGorgeous cards, so sorry to hear of all your troubles. I made one of these with tulle awhile back and know the work that went into them and I only made ONE.
