My first card using New Switch

 

 

Good Monday Morning Ladies, 

Atleast I think its Monday as Paul was up at 6am,  other than that I wouldn't have a clue what day of the week it was!  Thankfully he is working from home today, I am planning on playing with my new Switch machine, seeing how to set the sandwiches for cutting/ Embossing,  I did use it yesterday for the die above, it took two passes to cut but on reading the manual I see it says you need a Chrome Precision plate for thin dies!  Of course its not included, it cost £30 + on some sites, I ordered it from Craftelier for £16.99, so I ordered it from there, plus a few more bits to make postage worthwile.  😜🤣😂

Today's card is a super simple card using an old tissue paper background that I had in my bitbox.

I adhered it to a black card base and then die cut the Tim Holtz Meadow die and adhered it to the background,  I then stamped a sentiment!!  Super quick and easy!  

I hope that you all have a great start to the week,  

Love & hugs,

Sandra xxx

  1. Hi everyone
    A lovely card, and glad you got to use your new Switch machine. Shame you needed to purchase another plate, but glad you found one at a bargain price along with some other bits too 😉
    I might have a play with my new alcohol markers today. Although really I'm should be sitting at the computer doing some E learning for work - can’t get away from the place even on my days off! 😩 🙄
    Hope you all had a good weekend. Have a good day.
    Sending hugs to you all xxx

  2. Hi everyone
    This is such a gorgeous card Sandra. The background is lovely with it's colours.
    Haven't been doing much today and soon going for a nap. Best to set the alarm or it be too long and feel groggy all night.
    I hope you have a nice day and are taking care of yourself. Many hugs from Maria xx

  3. Hello Sandra and everyone,
    Lovely colour I love how you have created that background. It really gives beautiful depths to the T. H Die.
    Hope you’ve all had a good day. I have spent most of the day sleeping. Hope I’m not going down with anything.
    Take care everyone good night God bless big hugs Brenda XXX
