Tattered Lace Digital Magazine - Issue 22

this issue’s...

Hi Crafters,

Here we are with issue 22 and we've got some great projects in this issue for you!

We've gone down a different road, pardon the pun, with your exclusive SVG for this issue and we're giving you this classic vintage car and tyre tracks stencil. This is a great little SVG for any car enthusiasts in your life!

Going back to classic Tattered Lace we have some beautiful lacy SVGs in this issue with the Floral Beauty and the Borders Of Beauty. These are simply stunning when just cut from white cardstock. Then we have some fun over the edge sentiment SVGs and a cute little girl having the time of her life dancing in the rain! There's also the Tree Of Life SVG, which on it's own is a beautiful tree, but you can add your family members with the frame to make perfect family cards.

We loved our Vintage Heirloom collection so much and there is so much you can do with all those nested shapes so we brought this back to show you a bit more. We've also featured the Floral Facade collection which has gorgeous scenes and a screen, as well as pretty florals. David has made a lovely lantern with these!

Check out the How-To on page 56 for how to make a great stencil background using just a simple butterfly file and your machine.

Hope you enjoy and happy crafting!

WAYS WITH...

USING TAPE

1. Cut your chosen cardstock to the desired size. Add strips of Red Liner tape vertically to your cardstock. It works well if you use different thicknesses of tape.

2. Remove the backing from the tape and cover tape in gilding flakes. Gently pat down with your finger to make sure all areas of tape are covered.

3. Using a soft sponge, gently rub over the gilding flakes to rub away the excess from the untaped areas. Return any excess gilding flakes back into your tub.

4. Continue until you have rubbed away all the unstuck gilding flakes.

USING A GLUE PEN

1. Cut your chosen cardstock to the desired size. Using a glue pen with a thick flat nip, run a length of glue along each edge of your cardstock.

2. Leave the glue to go tacky, but not completely dry. When tacky, cover the glued areas in gilding flakes.

3. Gently pat down with your finger to make sure all areas of glue are covered.

4. Using a soft sponge, gently rub over the gilding flakes to rub away the excess from the untaped areas. Tip any unstuck gilding flakes back into your tub.

Gilding

USING A STENCIL

1. Cut your chosen cardstock to the desired size. Spray the back of your stencil with stencil spray and place onto your cardstock.

2. Spray the stencil glue onto your cardstock so the stencil glue goes through the stencil onto your cardstock. Remove the stencil.

3. Cover your cardstock in gilding flakes. Gently pat down with your finger to make sure all areas of spray are covered.

4. Using a soft sponge, gently rub over the gilding flakes to rub away the excess from the unsprayed areas. Tip any unstuck gilding flakes back into your tub.

SPREADING GLUE

1. Cut your chosen cardstock to the desired size. Dab a small foam sponge into glue and starting off the cardstock, drag the glue down the cardstock not going all the way to the bottom. Turn the cardstock around and repeat from the other side.

2. Cover the your cardstock in gilding flakes.

3. Gently pat down with your finger to make sure all areas of glue are covered.

4. Using a soft sponge, gently rub over the gilding flakes to rub away the excess from the unglued areas. Tip any unstuck gilding flakes back into your tub.

Gilding flakes are another great way of embellishing your projects in an easy and simple way. Here are six fun ideas for you to try!

Fold on the score lines of the card base to create the card. Mat the flipped pink heart card mat 2 cut onto the middle panel of the card. Mat one of the white border 1 cuts onto the top of the middle panel.

Turn the card over. Mat the green lace card mat 1 and the green lace card mat 3 cuts onto the outer panels of the card, and the remaining pink heart card mat 2 cut onto the middle panel of the card. Mat the remaining white border 1 cuts onto the top of the panels.

Mat the pink border mat cuts onto the outer panels of the card with foam tape.

Mat one of each of the remaining borders onto the outer panels, only sticking the bottom edges and overlapping the top edges.

Mat the sentiment square onto the pink square mat, and mat onto the right panel with foam tape. Add paper flowers to the outer panels of the card. Finish by adding pearl gems to the bottom lace cuts.

Hi Crafters,

Hope we are all doing well and busy doing lots of crafting! I'm trying my hardest to fit it in around spending time with my precious Noah. He's just so perfect, I can't get enough! Look at how much he has grown already, but that smile hasn't changed! He brings so much joy to our lives.
