Hello everyone! Like the sentiment says, I wish you all beautiful wishes for a beautiful day! Such a nice sentiment to send a friend anytime! This card uses the Grand Labels Twenty three die templates as a base for the card. I have used the largest three sizes here. I pierced the middle one for interest. I used the Intrinsic embossing folder on the smallest Grand die. I love the swirly background it gives you. I inked it with Tattered Rose Distress ink and then used the pad to hit the embossed area for some deeper colour. I cut a cream coloured frame using Labels eleven. I stamped my sentiment in black and inked it with Tattered Rose, leaving the centre a softer, lighter shade to bring your focus to the sentiment. I made a flower using the Rose Creation dies. I cut all the pieces for the flower out of cream card and inked them while still in the die with Tattered Rose distress ink. I shaped the flower die cuts and stacked and glued them. I added a pearl to cover the centre hole. I backed it with a bow of pearls and some tulle cut ragged at the ends. The close up pic below shows the flower in better detail. I hope you like it. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue
I agree with Christine a beautiful card and the colours really work for this type of card. Sentiment is lovely.

I like the effect you get with the flowers by inking them while they are still in the die. The white border is very effective. Lovely card. Karen x

Beautiful card.
Hi Sue, My Mum would love this card. It is so feminine. Her favourite colour is yellow and she adores pearls & of course flowers. It would also bring back many memories for her as many moons ago she used a lot of tulle to make ballet tutus. It certainly has brought back many memories for me.
With love and light Theresa. H
Love this one and what patience to pierce all round the card i believe free hand! Brilliant

Like the flowers inked in the die. You will never get bored on this blog!!!!!
Such a delicate card in soft colours; beautiful, Sue :-)
Hi Sue,
Sorry I missed this post but I wasn't the best.
Anyway I saw this on C&C when you did it for a demo. It is such a lovely, pretty card and looks so much better in its true colours (not attacking your photography skills).
I have been keeping up to date with spellbinders latest releases via another American ladies blog and boy do they look stunning!! I hope you will be bringing them to us in the not too distant future. (EG. Persian motifs etc. and double sided embossing folders.)
Have a good day Love Linda
