Fancy Edges for Try It On Tuesday

Fussy cut it, punch it, die cut it or use decorative scissors to make three decorative edges – that’s the challenge this fortnight at Try It On Tuesday. Here’s mine:

I’ve made a large tag, with three layers, each of which has a fancy edge. One is made from a tonic punch and the other two are spellbinder edgeabilities. I particularly like the curvy one at the bottom. Coloured with distress stains (spun sugar) and then stamped and edged with ‘tattered rose.’ I used a bit of ‘vintage photo’ on the edges. A little bit of embossing with Rose ‘Frantage’ to add a bit of texture and shine. Leaves and flower from my stash. Quick spritz with something shimmery and voila. Well. you know what I mean!!

So try out some fancy edges on your projects and link them with Try It On Tuesday so we can see what you’ve done.

 

Happy Crafting!!

Ohhh lovely! Would be great in card size as well. I like the bottom edge too, and the inking of all the edges. (And ofcourse the whole tag). And an insipiring quote!
Are the leaves wood or is it paper?

So much happening on one little tag. The combination of all the different edges really works to bring out the elegance in your piece.
