For You

 Hi guys!  Well I finally got my hands on the Gold Elements One set!  Isn't it a beauty!  I love playing around with the corner and yes, you will see it in every conceivable arrangement in the next coming weeks!  I picked a wedgewood blue  and white for today's offering, so clean and crisp, I just love these colours together.  I cut four of the corners in blue and layered them in the corners, but overlapped them.  Can you spot my boo boo?  I used Cosmic Shimmer dries clear glue to adhere them and it went off so quickly, I didn't have time to fix it!  So the last corner, which was supposed to get tucked under the corner of the first one, didn't!  Oh well, it just wasn't worth cutting four more corners and starting again.  I cut the largest size of the Stately Circles in white.  Then I layered up the Celtic Motif with mounting foam and finished with a smaller Stately Circle with my sentiment stamped in Cobalt blue Archival ink.  I used a bit of the ink to very lightly sponge the centre while it was still in the die too.  I added 5mm flatback pearls to the Celtic Motif as accents and in the four corners too.  I pierced the edges of the inner white mat to finish the card.  Yes, it is pretty and girlie, my kind of card!  Finished Dimensions are 7 3/4" x 7 3/4" in size.  All for now, Sue x

Late for me today, Sue, been hectic.
Wonderful card, that corner die really gives a stunning effect.
Love the colours - and you shouldn't have said about the boo boo - no-one would have noticed.
I had a good look and still think
what? where?
Guess you must be just about worn out from the marathon yesterday and no rest hey because of AP, so
expect you're looking forward to your visit to Mom? It's got to be time for relaxation soon!
Taake care.

Beautiful card Sue, only caught one of the shows so far- rest are on sky plus- work got in the way but am looking forward to a big sit down to watch the rest as soon as I can. Not sure if I have already missed it but are you going to bring us your roll of foam pads that you cut to whatever size you want, or can you let me know where I can get some from please?
Enjoy AP And then a very deserved rest.

What a beautiful card. I would never have noticed the gluing 'error'. I will definitely have a go with similar dies.

Have a good weekend.

Dear Sue
What a beautiful card I love the Wedgwood blue card with the white. I didn't spot your 'mistake' until you pointed it out to me so I don't think it matters -it looks great. I have the gold elements one set and love using this corner die.
So all your inspiration will be great.
I really like the Celtic design over the circle die it makes it look amazing and a great different take on how to use it.
Must get the Celtic motif and accent dies I missed out as I ran out of money ! Hopefully c&c TV will have it when I have some money at the end of next week!
After of course I've paid all the bills 😣ouch!
Have a great weekend at ally pally I hope you've caught up on some sleep and rest now from your marathon Tuesday to Wednesday on c&c you were amazing to be able to keep going all that long.
Wish I could get down to ally pally just to meet you but just not possible unfortunately.
Thanks again for this amazing card and al your inspiration.
