Hever, one style of die, required for Day 1 - Holiday Backgrounds, a cover plate die, did arrive in the mail on the last day of class and so I decided to do a remake of that card...

Day 4: October 11, 2017 –Holiday Die Cutting
Background Die Gate Fold Card
The technique was demonstrated by Jennifer McGuire and ,white I messed up the measurements about half-way through (and used the wrong embossing powder --- a pearl white which is more transclucent than I wanted), I think it worked out rather well.

I really enjoy Online Card Classes and recommend them to everyone. More often than not, I never post to the class while it is active but I love that, once enrolled, the class is available online forever, and, if crafting near a completer is impossible, has downloadable pdfs for each lesson.
