Get Well Soon

 Hello all!  I think this may have been the beginning of my grey and custard phase as I have done a few of them lately!  This was the first card I made with the new Celtic Motifs and Celtic Accent die sets.  I absolutely fell in love with that border.  I had an idea in mind when I started this one to make the borders look as if they are floating in the background.  I am not sure if my photography has captured that or not, you will have to let me know.  I started by cutting five of the borders out of the mid grey card.  I cut two strips of the custard card and matted them on a slightly larger piece of coconut white card.  I taped the borders in equal distances across the back of that strip then added mounting foam to the strip.  I trimmed the borders down to the size that I wanted and then did the other side exactly the same way.  I cut a slightly larger piece of coconut white card and paper pierced the side edges then mounted the borders and the strips they were attached to on to the white card.   Next I cut my focal piece out of custard card using the Celtic Motif.  I used the outer ring die for this as well as the decorative inner piece.  I used mounting foam and centred it atop my borders.  I cut the smaller Celtic die out of grey card and mounted it in the middle.  Then I stamped my sentiment using a black archival ink pad and cut it out with one of the Charmed I'm Sure tags.  These tags have a single hole in them at the top, but I wanted a symmetrical look so I turned the tag around in the die and cut it so I had a hole on either end.  I mounted it in the centre to complete my focal piece.  I cut two of the decorative elements from the set and glued them to the strips on the top and bottom of the card as an embellishment.  I added a double mat of mid grey card and used the Cosmic Shimmer silver PVA glue to add a decorative dotty border around the edges on the inner mat. Definitely one you could use for the guys.  I had a request for more guy cards but I am afraid that I am a bit limited on them at the moment.  I will do a bit more searching to see what I can find.  Finished dimensions are 7" x 7 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x

  2. GM Sue - unusual - I am not sure if I like the celtics dies or not - this card hasn't made me think that though - I mean in the packets - I am sure you will convince me eventually I do need them though!! Love the symetry of this card.

  3. Good morning Sue,
    From here I don't see it floating but I do like it.
    These are not dies I would rush out to buy, you have certainly made a stunning card using them. Really like the colour combination.
    Have a great day

  4. Hi Sue
    This is a lovely card. The grey looks really crisp and I think it would work with a number of different accent colours. The Celtic motifs look to be a useful set. I'm sold!

  16. Good Morning Sue,
    A great effect, I can just make out the shadow behind, so I see them floating. It is a striking card, but I haven't had the urge to buy these dies, yet, lol, even though they would be great for male cards.
    Have a great day.

  22. Morning Sue, I can see what you mean by 'floating', but the strips look more 'floating' than the borders. Loving the colours, I do like the grey and custard together, very fresh. This is a great guy card.

  25. Morning Sue, what a different way of using borders, you do so have an eye for flare. Personally I love this card but we all do not have tastes. Your photography does do the card justice. Think I will try this and put micro beads on the centre large die. Love it. Have a good day.

  39. The close up at the bottom does show the borders 'floating', nice idea. I like the border die but not too sure if I'd go for the central one. The custard yellow goes really well with the grey.

    can see the effect you wanted but for me I'm afraid today's gift is too busy - I love the colour scheme but with the background covered in the celtic border and then the centre circle they take away the 'wow' factor.
    I agree these dies will make great cards for the guys we have to cater for.

    Hi Sue,
    great composition, will certainly do something similar (if slightly smaller)at some tme in the future. The Celtic dies are not for me but I have plenty others I can use.
    Would also replace the yellow with teal(for men) and old pink or mauve for us girls. But that is my own personal choice, it's not a criticism of your choice.

  55. Love the versatility of this card which could easily be used for men or women and also different occasions by changing the colours.

  56. Morning Sue, yes I can see the floating of the borders, I do love the Celtic dies, not so sure about the grey though. love Jean xxx

  66. Hi Sue. Your floating borders do show up beautifully, although it took me some time to work out how you had done it. Got it now I am pleased to say.Can't see me buying these dies but I am sure I will use this method with other border dies. Thanks. SueL

  67. Hi Sue

    Im not too sure about these dies to be honest with you , and they wont be at the top of my wish list at the moment however im sure you will convince me otherwise when you use them to show more of your cards .

    I agree with the other crafters though ,i think they do make a good male card .

  83. Hi Sue

    Love the idea of this card. Can't see it floating on the screen. The colours are lovely. the mid grey is in your pack, but will you eventually add the custard as well?. I liked it when you used it with the border dies on the side of a card with white. Mind you not that I can get your selection. I just keep missing out.

  139. What a brilliant way to use the borders, makes a fantastic card though I don't see it as a masculine card. It would really cheer up someone feeling poorly, get well cards can be tricky. Another beautiful card.

    Dear Sue
    What a super card this is, I really love this Celtic themed card, ideal for guys in the custard and grey colours you've used and in reds and green would be great for people from the Celtic lands!
    I love the way you've used the borders as a feature of the card such a great and new idea. I really want the Celtic die sets and have them on a wish list I'm busy building of die sets I want. I'm glad you've shown us a way to use them in a new and interesting way.

    Thank you for your inspiration and crafting for us all.

    Best wishes from Katie-Louise.

  147. Hi Sue, not sure about these dies but like the way you have used them and can imagine them in a different colour way x

  148. Hi Sue, I'm on the fence on this one! I do like it, however I'm not sure. There are things I love, the Celtic design, but I'm not to keen on the colour! It is definitely one for the men. Crafty hugs Debbie R xx

    detail, thus that thing is maintained over here.

  153. Like the lemon and grey colour combo, but I'm not sure how much use I would get out of these dies.


    Thanks, Susan
