TECHNIQUE TWIST #13

FAUX TILE

Come try out the Faux Tile Challenge and 

If you can through a twist in it all the better!

Here's what I did......

1. Make a Coastal Cabana card base.

2. Cut off the front half of a Sweetheart Treat Bag and cut it down to 

    4 5/8 x 3 3/8.

3. Silver Emboss the sentiment 3 times down the center of the paper.

4. Now offset the left hand portion of the sentiment in between the previously  

    center stamped sentiment. Do this on the right side of the paper.

5. Now offset the right hand portion of the sentiment in between the center

    sentiment on the left side of the paper. 

6. Versamark the whole paper and clear emboss with a heat gun.

7. Cut 1" off the right side of the paper and repeat on the left side.

8. Cut each of the 3 strips at 1" at each end.

9. Glue and re-essemble the strips and square on a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" white piece 

    of card stock. Leave a small space of white showing in between the squares.

10.Now you can cut down the larger white outside edges to match YOUR tile 

    widths.

11.Glue to card base.

12. Use the cute little striped banner in the Sweetheart Treat Bag kit and place 

      it over a piece of Coastal Cabana card stock .Trace and cut the shape of 

      the striped banner making it just 1/2" longer.

13. Stamp the key image with Real Red ink on white and punch with a 1" 

      square. Mount it to a Real Red layer made with the Postage Punch. Pop up 

      with dimensionals.

14. Fold 1 of the Bakers Twine pieces included in the kit in half and tie around 

     the card base with a bow in the front.
