NEED LINK Julie HRR's black tie card

[ginapier]

I have searched high and low for this awesome tuxedo/black tie card featured in this months DD gallery. Unless I am losing my mind I could swear I saw a post once on how to do it..

Please please please post the link so I can make this card

Thanks!

Hi, Gina!
Julie's shirt/tie instructions are in the Fan Club Forum.

WOW THAT WAS FAST!

The information in the fan club forum is for a different card :(

I was hoping to locate the "black Tie" card that looks like a tuxedo.. anyone?

[JulieHRR]

Gina,

I didn't actually provide instructions or even a template for the tux as I winged it?

However, Leigh O'Brien's "Daddy's Suit" template is at this link and I'm sure it will serve to do what you need?

Good girl! ;) But you should get the Vintage Brads--those are my favorites!!! I use 'em so much I have to buy 2 packages at a time! :o

I wish I could get just the antique copper ones alone--I seem to consume those the fastest . . . it would be so cool if the hodgepodge hardware kits coming included antique copper eyelets, too . . . :rolleyes:

Heh, heh, heh . . . I always want more, more, more, of that stuff!

Well Here it is- It doesnt do your version any justice but not bad for first attempt...

I crimped the center where the brads are attached but you cant really see it in the photo. I also made the paper rose and leave on the lapel from a flower punch. Again- I wish I had the black brads- but I used teh gold ones and just embossed em black- they dont look too bad.

I think my lapels hang over too far but...not to mention my printer isn't working for some reeason so I cant put my ..er um I mean your little saying that I LOVE!!! (will have to attach that later...

Thanks again!!!! lets see what else can I case....

Julie- that's funny, I wish I could get just the black ones- I consume those the fastest!! Hey- maybe we should swap antique copper & black?? PM me if you like this idea- wonder what the postage would be? couldn't be more than $1, right? and can they be mailed in a reg. envy???
