Miss You

 Hello my crafty friends!  First of all I would just like to say that you have my Mom eating out of your hands!  She was just lapping up all the wonderful comments about her yesterday (especially one about us looking like sisters!) LOL  You guys definitely made her day, thank you!  Now for today's card, it is one of those long skinny kind I really love making as they are just so different!  Gold Elements One it is and that fantastic corner in the set.  I used it three times across the card, using just the inside die without the triangle cutting die to give me this pretty decorative insert across my card.  I cut it out of a pale lavender card.  Behind the cut out, I covered a piece of white card with a self adhesive sticky sheet and then covered it with Rock Candy Dry Glitter for a white on white sparkly bling effect.  I mounted my lavender piece above it with mounting foam for dimension.  I left a thin white mat top and bottom as the length of this card didn't allow me to do that on all four sides.  I added a further mat top and bottom which I pierced and added score lines above and below the piercing for a different effect.  I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with the smallest die in the Gold Labels Four set as it is very pretty.  I inked it slightly with Milled Lavender distress ink for a shadow.  I tied a double bow out of white silky crush ribbon and added it in the left hand corner.  I tucked my tag under the edge of a pearl embellishment on my bow.  At the other end of the card, I added some pearl swirls as a balance.  The finished dimensions are 5" x 11 1/2" in size. 
Just a quick reminder that Julia Watts has shows today on Create and Craft tv at 2pm and 7pm.  Be sure to tune in to see her great demos!   All for now, Sue x
