Sugar Nellie


Was having a play around yesterday experimenting with my cricut, cutout my backing with it then I embossed it but i put my image onto the background I think I shouldve mounted it onto card then on to the embossed card as it has left my card bumpy and crinkly looking so not really pleased with the finished result it actually looks worse in the photo. Away now to get stuck into more wedding invites they are coming on well, I will post them once they are finished and the bride has posted them out. Catch up soon. Aud x
