Join Crafter's Companion for a step-by-step guide to creating the Downton Abbey Filigree Die Box!
Materials:
- Big Score
- Trimmer and scissors
- Collall Tacky Glue
- Acetate
- Crafter’s Companion A4 hammered Cream cardstock
- Downton Abbey Oval Filigree Die
- Downton Abbey 3D Bow Filigree Die
- Pearls from your stash
Method:
1. Using your Big
Score, place the short side of a piece of A4 card to the butt of the lid side
and score at 6 ½ inches – cut on this line – you will need 2 of these. Score
one on all 4 sides at 1 inch on the lid side of your board, and 1 on all 4
sides on the base side of your board:
2. Place the
Filigree part of the oval die in the centre of the box lid, and place the
largest of the oval nesting dies inside that, tape with a little low tack tape
and run through your die cutting machine:
3. Turn it over, cut
a piece of acetate to size and use tacky glue to apply the acetate to the box
lid, I use my fingertip, it gives a thinner coverage and the glue dries clear
through the acetate so you won’t get unsightly glue marks:
4. Cut the corners
of both pieces of cardstock:
5. Burnish the score
lines and, using tacky glue, construct them together:
6. You can now
decorate how you choose – we used the nesting oval die and the Filigree Bow to
finish this design!
