I just love these zipper roses! Aren't they fun and funky? Just the kind of thing that makes you look twice because you aren't quite sure what you have just seen! That is my kind of embellishment. Three is probably a bit of over kill, but once in a while, you're allowed to just splurge on something fun for your hobby, right! Behind the zipper roses, I used some of the new sulphur blue vintage ribbon with the chalk white seam binding and the red Bakers twine for impact. Just a simple layout sketch, but I love the frilly little edgeablility border, it just makes it so much more interesting. I cut the heart square out of the same decorative paper as the bottom of the card and topped it with a couple of smaller label shaped dies for my focal sentiment. I added a pearl swirl to the top corner and Cosmic Shimmer white pearl PVA glue to create my own faux pearls all the way around the edge to frame and finish the card. Have I told you that I love polka dots (you wouldn't have guessed, huh?! LOL) All for now, Sue x

Hello Sue !
I'm still considering the Zipper Rose..fine if you're giving a card ,but I'm not sure about postage ? But...I love the Red, White, and Blue.
I think the Edgeability Borders are a plus to the other Dies. Oh! dear more Spellbinder addictions
lol
love Marg
Hi Sue. I love the zipper roses - I got some red ones at Ally Pally on Sunday. Love the patriotic colours. Have a safe journey tomorrow. Love, Julia xxx
The zipper roses certainly do grab your attention. They are a real eye popper.
Gorgeous card Sue and the zipper roses look fabulous. My Edgeabilities arrived yesterday, can't wait to play but have to see what my Eye Consultant says on Friday.

What a great card. These flowers are gorgeous. TFS.
That card would make a great anniversary card, i was married on the 4th July. I too love polka dots and the zipper roses aren't overly femine. Kath x

Hi Sue

I second Marg's comments. Most of my cards have to get posted so I'm always on the lookout for 3D looks from 2d-ish things. All ideas welcome!
Sue your cards looked great on the shows but it is always nice to see them up close, the zippers are great and i love what you have done with the edgibilities another combination on the note pad.
wow what a fab card and yes i do agree sometimes you just have to go crazy a put extras on your cards and this is perfect with 3 of the zipper roses which are lush by the way and wow who would have thought it your a fan of polka dots lol i too love using them thx for sharing another fab creation xx
Hi Sue
Another great card and bold colours this time. Love the pearl swirls-hope they're available soon.

Blue - yum!!! My favourite colour. Not only do I love polka dots, I love all spots and stripes too. So, all in all, this card really hits the spot. Love the patriotic colours.x
Love those zipper roses! Can't wait for mine to arrive...although I think I need the red swell now( I ordered the black collection!).
Hi Sue, love your red, white and blue. I haven't used my roses yet. Your card is beautiful. Hugs x ChrisB
Hi Sue, such a lovely card. I was unsure about the zipper roses when I first saw them. However, the more I see them, the more I love them x
Gorgeous - I still can't make my mind up which set of Edgeabilities to get first!
this is lovely sue and is quite patriotic. just might have to lift this one.
What an absolutely fun card! Love the red, white, and blue, too!
Love the red/white/blue and those zipper roses certainly make a statement!
