Good morning craft friends! Almost an all white card. I just felt it needed a pop of colour to it, not sure why I picked blue, but blue it was! My picture isn't the best today and I apologise for that and white is notoriously difficult to get a good shot of anyways. I started with a background that I embossed with the embossibility folder, then I used my Persian border and embossed it into the side of the piece. You can see this a bit clearer in the close up. I then cut a Persian border and added it to the edge with a strip of white glitter card to set it off. I just thought it would make for a different looking background to this card. I stamped my sentiment on white card, centred it and then cut it out using the Samantha Walker Antique frame. I removed the outside frame from the die and added some very small pieces of mounting foam to the back and mounted it in the corner. I inked the sentiment while still in the die using chipped sapphire distress ink, leaving the centre section with a bit of white showing through. I mounted this piece a bit higher in the centre of my frame. I pierced all the way around the edge and added a small mat of the white glitter card for a bit of extra bling. I needed it as no ribbon today! LOL All for now, Sue x

Such a beautiful elegant card! Just see myself doing this for a wedding! If you had added a bow, I dont think it would distract from the main card! So bow or no bow would be the question?? lol

my first thought this morning when I saw your card was 'no ribbon on this one' ... after very big to very small ;).
A wonderful card this is anyway I love this white on white style.

This white on white theme always seems to work. I need to try this embossing the die onto the card rather than cutting it, looks good.
Missing the bow though!

Hi Sue,
What a lovely sophisticated card. Did the first lot of embossing not get squashed when you later embossed the border or have I read that wrong?
Beverley W
Love white on white really elegant. The blur really sets it off. Thanks once again.
Grimsby Chris
hi sue very elegant love it
Gorgeous card, love everything about it. just rec'd my dies and spent all day sorting them out. Ready to play now, my arm had better behave now as I have so many ideas for cards. Lol Lynne M
So gorgeous! I love white cards and the blue just gives it that little bit extra! xx
Beautiful! Love the border & the embossing. The frame and splash of blue is perfect! Makes it just pop!
White on white is my favourite but like the little splash of colour!!!
What a lovely elegant card! Love all the texture and white! Hugs, Hanneke
Hi Sue. A stunning card. I like how you just emboss with dies and not always cut with them. Karen x
Good evening Sue,
Isn't this sentiment so true. Everything in life that brings us joy is always better and bigger if we can share it with someone else and when we are sad, there is nothing better than a shoulder to cry on or an ear to listen. This sentiment may be short but it is packed with alot of meaning.
Well, another triumph here today Sue. I think the reason I like this one so much is the sublety of the bling. Not in your face and it doesn't overshadow the beautiful embossing. A real winner for me.
Hope you are having a wonderful time with mum in the US of A.
Take care Linda x
The Queen of Cards has cast herspell again. This card is simply the best. This layout can be used for any occasion just by changing the sentiment.
Love love love it.
