It's Another Giveaway Day!

Hi my crafty friends!  I think this card is rather doilie-ious  (that was bad, wasn't it!)  But that is just what it reminds me of when you put four of the corners together like this.  Add in some micro beads and it is scrumptious I think!  I started this card by covering a piece of blue card with a piece of self adhesive sticky sheet and then trimming the edges to size and rounding the corners.  Next I cut four of the Heartfelt Creations blossom corner die in coconut white card.  Before I peeled the backing paper off, I laid the corners down to see where the approximate centre of my card was.  I used my pokey tool and poked a small hole in the centre.  I knew that it wouldn't show when the card was finished and it gave me a starting point from which to lay my four dies down.  Next I peeled the backing paper off and used that hole as the place where I first attached the tip of all four corner dies so that they would be relatively straight.  With the sticky paper, you don't really get a second chance.  Once it touches, it is pretty much stuck!  After I made sure they were firmly touching (I use the glossy side of the release paper, lay it over then rub), I poured my micro beads over the top of the entire piece.  I cut out the oval die in the Radiant Rectangle set, also using the smaller insert for more detail to use as a mat for my sentiment.  I stamped my sentiment (from Justrite stamps) then cut it out with one of the smaller sizes of the Labels 18 die set.  Using Stormy Sky distress ink, I lightly inked it while still in the die for an accent.  I mounted it in the centre of my oval, then attach that piece in the centre of my corner dies.  I added some flatback pearls to the card corners and parts of the corner dies as well.  Finished the piece with my customary double white pierced mat.  Finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x 7 3/4" in size.  How about if we do a giveaway on today's card.  Just leave me a comment and I will draw a name from among them to be the winner.  I'll post it up for you on Friday!  It has been absolutely forever since I have been able to do one.  I think it's high time!  All for now, Sue x
