Friday Die Day

Hello friends
 
This week I'm featuring Venetian Gatefold, another beautiful die
designed by Stacey Caron from her Renaissance Collection.
 
There are two dies in the set.

The approximate measurement of each die is:
Panels: 2.10 x 5.50 in
 
This is how they look cut/embossed.
You will notice that if you align each die side by side
it enables you to cut a frame to fold - create 'gates/doors'.
 
 
I've chosen to patterned paper to place behind.

 
Secured a ribbon band - this can slide off to open up the gates.

 
Final touch - flower and tag - the flower and leaves is created from
Flower Play.


 
 
Venetian Gatefold is available to purchase from your Spellbinders retailer now,
I can see it being a really useful die for invitations etc.
 
Wishing you a wonderful weekend, I think it's going to be sunny!
 
Take care friends.
