Lace Greeting Cards

Melanie Hendricks shows how to make inspirational cards for all occasions using this new technique - its name Lacé meaning to interlaced in French. The technique involves making a pattern of cuts using templates. The loose edges are then folded over and tucked under each other using a folding tool to create a distinctive interlacing effect, enhanced by using duo-colour papers. In a series of step-by-step projects Melanie decorates lacé cards using rubber stamps, coloured papers, beads, punch cuts and more.
