Something Just For You

 Hi crafters!  I think I will stick to that greeting today as it is safer! LOL    I guess I shouldn't rely on spell check to catch all my mistakes!  The card I have picked for today is a different sort for me but it has a nice playfulness to it.  I created my background by cutting an extended version of the Basic Lattice die out of coconut white card.  Using the Grand Squares, I cut a frame and used one of the dies in the size in between to simply emboss into the frame for an extra added detail to it.  I mounted my frame on foam for dimension and mounted it over my lattice background piece.  I cut a larger piece of white to sit behind the lattice too. I stamped several of the floral bunting stamp from Justrite (Buntings and buttons stamp set) on to an assortment of pastel colours and white heat embossed them.   Next I cut them out using the matching bunting die and I also cut two white ones.  I cut the pastel buntings up so each flag was individual.  I glued them on top of the white bunting strip to create a bunting with an assortment of colours.  I glued a flatback pearl between each flag to give them an elegant look.   The two buntings were attached so they adorned the upper corner of my card.  I stamped my sentiment on lavender card then stamped the Vintage Labels three frame around it and heat embossed with white powder.  I cut it out with the matching die and mounted it in the opposite corner.  I tied a messy bow with mauve seam binding and added a lavender Dazzler as an accent.  A double white pierced mat completed the card.  Finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 7 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x
