With Kindness

 Hello my crafty friends!  Here's a card I made using my new die line.  I started by embossing the background using my Heart Lattice embossing folder.  I used the Calabria die cut out of blush card.  I scored it and cut into the centre then concertina folded it to create a fan shape for the background.  I tucked the edges under the Spanish Collection border cut out of white card.  I cut a black strip to mat it with.  In the area below the border I cut a Hollywood die from the California collection.  I cut it in half and then used the pieces offset, tucking the ends under the border.  I stamped a sentiment and cut it out with Decorative Frames Set B and inked through the die with Spun Sugar  I mounted my tag in the middle on foam pieces.  Using the Classic Rose die, I created a variety of flowers out of blush, white and black felt and added white and black flatback pearls to the centres.  I arranged the flowers across the card and the fan as embellishments.  To finish, I added two black rhinestone swirls in opposite cards.  The last step was to add my double white pierced mat layers.  Finished dimensions are 8" x 8" in size.  All for now, Sue x
