Peace/ Card Giveaway x 2

 Hi bloggers!  Do you recall back in July when I demoed this card at the show in Las Vegas, I said that I would give it away when I got home?  Well, today is the day!  And I have two of these to give away on top of it all!  The original and the demo version.  So leave a comment today if you would like to be entered in the drawing to win one of these cards.  I will draw two names and post the winners names on Monday mornings post.  A quick rundown in case you missed the demo back then.  I started with a milk coloured card background stamped it with the sentiment (Heartfelt Creations)and heat embossed it with gold powder. Next, I embossed the background with a Couture Creations folder called Taylor from their Elegance Collection to add texture.  I used the holly swirl die from the Heartfelt Creations set called Ornamental Add Ons and cut several out of milk card.  Using Cosmic Shimmer dries clear glue, I covered the leaves with it and sprinkled Iced Snow on top of them.  I added cream flatback pearls to all the round berry pieces in the die cut.  I glued them in place radiating from the upper corner across and down the side of the card.  I cut four of the die from that set that looks sort of like an ornament out of soft gold card.  I scored them all down the centres and glued them back to back to form my 3D ornament.  I glued the two sides from the first and last ornament to the background so it looked like it was hanging from the holly spray.  I went back and highlighted my sentiment with an Antique Linen distress marker and added small pearls to the holly spray on it.  I tied a messy bow out of chalk seam binding and added a small pearl embellishment to the centre.  I attached it in the upper corner.  I added a double mat out of soft gold card and pierced the inner layer.  Some more cream flatback pearls were used in the lower corner to complete the card.  Finished dimensions are 7" x 8 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x

I haven't seen this one before, it is really lovely. I bought the add dies after seeing another of your cards, so it is really nice to see them used differently. Debra

stunned and in awe - missed this card the first time; but it is breathtakingly graceful and beautiful. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, please may I try to do something very similar?
