You Have to Try These Things, Don't You??

 Quite a few variations of this 'lattice'  technique seem to be going the rounds and it seems to be a case of combining suitable images with cutting dies, quite possibly involving adding a new die (or more) to the stash.  I was determined not to fall into that particular trap until I was sure I'd want to make sufficient cards in this style to warrant a purchase and my first efforts weren't particularly successful and ended up in the bin 🙄.  I've finally found a reasonable combination by stamping a fairly large image onto two matching pieces of card and combined them  using a die which I've had for many years (probably no longer available).    If you want to try this technique you can find a link to the video here giving detailed instructions.  It was fun giving this a try but I don't think it will become a favourite with me.
