More than 2 die for Allsorts

Good Morning All
I,m hosting the challenge this week at Allsorts and I want to see at least two or more diecuts on your wonderful creations.
As we are sponsored by Sissix I used their Iron Gate Die, one of my faves.


Did you see John Next Door demoing this technique on Hochanda back in April.
He glued tin foil to card then ran it through an embossing folder.
If I remember correctly, he inked his but I used Gilding Polish on CE Wild Roses Folder. 
Cut the Iron Gate die in white card.
I made a frame with the pierced rectangles.
Added some satin flower and mosaic leaves.
Get Well sentiment in the bottom corner with two gems. Fine plaited leather down each side.

  10. A fabulous background and some really lovely dies used here, love the colour of the background.
    Didn't see it as I do not watch craft programmes but a great pity that I didn't. Maybe I should and learn more.
