Thanks Ever So Much

Hi guys!  I may have to apologise for the number of times you pop by the blog and I am using this set of dies!  I absolutely love the Radiant Rectangles and find it hard to put them down quite frankly.  I just want to use them with every colour card to see how they look.  There are so many different combinations you can achieve with this set too, well worth the price of the set in my book.  Today's card is simply a play with them in a very straight forward mix of cutting some layers and embossing others.  I decided to use some maroon/wine coloured card (I never know how to describe this colour)  It was out of my stash though and I haven't found a supplier for this colour that I am happy with at the moment, but still looking!  I started with a piece of coconut white card that I embossed the background using the Elegant Labels Four die (another amazingly beautiful die set).  I wanted just some detail in the card so embossing fit the bill for that.  Next I cut the largest size of the Radiant Rectangles using the three largest dies so I ended up with a pretty white frame.  I used just the largest die and cut my maroon card to give me the platform for my frame and smaller focal element.  I glued the frame to it and mounted it with foam in the centre of my embossed background.  I cut the next smaller size in the rectangles in white card and mounted it in the middle.  I then cut the oval die in the set with the decorative insert piece inside.   I stamped my sentiment in Maroon archival ink and cut it out with a small oval die from the basic Oval set and highlighted it while in the die with the maroon ink.  I popped it in the centre of my focal element.  I decided to try a very different idea and use some pearl Nestabling in the shape from Fancy Tags two and use it across the focal element as a sort of pearl swirl sort of shape.  I rather like it as I have never used it other than on the matching die cut outs.  It just highlights the sentiment nicely I think.  Another idea you may or may not want to try, but it does give you a bit more creativity within your crafting arsenal.  I mounted the entire piece with a maroon mat for balance, then a double white mat with the inner layer paper pierced for a nice frame and finish to the card.  Finished dimensions are 7" x 8 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x

Good Morning Sue,
Beautiful as always, I love these dies, the 'burgundy' card is great, the word 'maroon' always makes me snicker for some strange reason, lol. Like the embossing of the elegant label at the back. A beautiful card.

Ecco of Sheffield said...

morning Sue
I really love the colours for today.I do not see them very often but they do go together very very well. I have never tried just embossing the dies and not cutting - I don't know why it's just one of those things I place the die and cut - must really try and remember to emboss only sometimes. Today's gift is just so elegant with the rectangles I would be over the moom to receive a card like this.

Believe it or not pigskin leather, the same as that used in making footballs, is also highly utilized as leather used in the manufacture of quality footwear. The recent development of machines that can produce enough pigskin in proper condition to be chrome tanned has allowed this type of leather to become more popular. Another aspect of pigskin is that it readily accepts dyes which allows for it to be produced in the wide variety of colors needed in womens shoes in particular.Powering this sleek, though somewhat largish recording device -- 2.3 by 1.4 by 0.6 inches which weights 2.2 ounces -- is a next generation lithium-polymer battery.[url=http://www.cheaptomsbuy.com]Cheap Toms[/url] Every year it seems like shoe manufacturers come out with new materials to make shoes from including simulated leathers, rubber, and even plastic but it is a safe bet that leather will continue to dominate the designer shoe market for some time. The person who buys a pair of shoes from TOMS gets the opportunity to help needy children as one pair of shoes is rewarded to that child by the company on each purchase made.It is like an hon our for those who contribute in this noble cause. [url=http://www.cheaptomssite.com]Cheap Toms[/url] Hearing the word TOMS shoes sketches in minds a picture of a shoes with colorful and bright patterns as well as a brand with a purpose. The brand is founded by an entrepreneur from Texas, Blake Mykoskie who was one of the contestants in the second season famous TV reality show Amazing Race. The whole idea of establishing a business on the foundation of social entrepreneurship was ignited in the mind of Blake when he observed children with bare feet somewhere in the undeveloped area of the country Argentina. [url=http://www.onlinetomsoutlet.com]Toms Outlet[/url] Experts believe that non-profit organizations can run efficiently as a sustainable business if the services they provide to the community, provides something back to the business that can help the enterprise grow further. This concept has been coined as creative capitalism within which a company can make profit as well as serve the society. TOMS Shoes can be considered a good example of creative capitalism. When a consumer purchases one pair of TOMS shoes, the company gives a pair of new shoes to a needy child. With a simple yet innovative One for One concept, the company has managed to make a difference along with making profit.

Hi Sue

Another beautiful and elegant card and i love the colour scheme. I showed it to my husband and he sait it was beautiful, I told him I NEED these dies and he replied "how many Christmas's am I expecting to have this month", so guess who's going shopping. As my husband walked out of my workroom he said I hope that lady uses the same dies all month because this could be expensive.I laughed and said just do all the overtime going. I think I was joking. :)

Oh wow Sue, such a gorgeous card! Although I haven't got them, like you I love these dies and I'd be forever using them too! Please don't ever apologise for using them. It would be everyday for me! Love the burgandy/wine (ditto on not knowing the difference, unless one is slightly darker?). I've done a few cards in these colours and they look so classy with the dazzlers, hat pins and ribbon, (all due to your inspiration, thank you!). Love the nestabling....need to find that key to the padlock on my purse.....! xx Love Karen xx

You might think so much detail from the dies themselves and then the pearls would fight each other for attention but alas, no.... the card is another delight! Susan x

HI SUE
love the embossed bit followed by the cut out die on top. Yes one of the best sets of dies i have bought. Think the pearls just finish it off and would never have thought to twist it 90 degrees.
wonderful card.

Paper Junkie said...

Confession time Sue - I have these dies but haven't yet used them! I know, I know, but I have been busy on my allotment and in my garden while the weather has been so good. But the next rainy day...I will use them I promise and hopefully my card will look something like your gorgeous creation!. X

Unknown said...

Hi Sue, Another stunning card today I've got these dies but I too never think of just embossing with them must think more not just cut! Love the colour combo too.
Hope your having a good R&R.
Hugs

Deborah said...

Hi Sue...indeed another fab card, and I love the burgandy color...very rich...and could be used for male or female cards. The dies are also very nice...makes the card look expensive.

Hope you are well.

What Makes Toms Shoes So PopularEspadrille is a classic rope soled shoe native of the French Mediterranean, this shoe is the new craze as men around the globe find out its comfort and simplicity. Espadrille first appeared in the Pyrenees mountains and have since become synonymous with summer and the ease of the French Riviera. The appeal of espadrille has steadily grown and they have been embraced by the fashion world. Fashion houses of repute such as Armani and Versace have all embraced espadrille and featured them on the runaway. It can be remembered that model Don Johnson sported a pair of these in the early years of NBC television series "Miami Vice".[url=http://www.cheaptomsbuy.com]Cheap Toms sale[/url] What further makes this brand even more desirable is their "One for One" charitable cause under which they donate a pair of new shoes to a child in need for a pair they sold. Therefore if you buy a pair of Toms Shoes for yourself a poor child somewhere will get a new pair of shoes as well. This social cause is getting a huge amount of support and appreciations from NGOs and Social Groups who work for needy children from all over the world.Mary-Kate Olsen [url=http://www.onlinetomsoutlet.com]Toms Shoes[/url] Toms And Terrasoless Shoes Casual Range Of Stylish Yet Durable Shoes Believe it or not pigskin leather, the same as that used in making footballs, is also highly utilized as leather used in the manufacture of quality footwear. The recent development of machines that can produce enough pigskin in proper condition to be chrome tanned has allowed this type of leather to become more popular. Another aspect of pigskin is that it readily accepts dyes which allows for it to be produced in the wide variety of colors needed in womens shoes in particular. [url=http://www.tomsfans.com]Toms Oultet Store[/url] With the pain of these children I heart and the design of Argentinean shoes in mind, he decided to convert his mission of helping these children into a full fledged shoe company. The company has a policy of gifting a brand new pair of shoes to these children for every pair of shoes sold by them. The company worked because it made the customer a part of its mission. 3.
