Just For You

 Good Sunday morning all!  I hope you really enjoyed the latest die launch!  I just have been dying to show my new Noble dies to you as I think they are just so pretty.  You know how much I love to use large frames on cards and I think these have such pretty detail to them.  It has been hard not to spill the beans about them since I received the prototype dies several months ago!  Finally the time has arrived and I can show them off to my hearts content! LOL  Today's blog post showcases the Ornate Pierced Rectangle Noble die set.  I selected a black and white colour theme and started by cutting two of the Lavish Swirls Diagonals in coconut white card.  I glued them vertically to the edge of my white card background (see already another use for the Diagonal dies!)  Next I cut the Ornate Pierced Noble using the two cutting edges and the decorative insert to cut a pretty detailed frame.  I used the outside cutting edge to cut the backing in black card.  I glued it to the back of my frame and then reseated the inside edge die to cut the inside of the frame to match.  I added mounting foam to the back.  I embossed a piece of white card using the Rambling Blossoms folder and seated my frame over it and trimmed away the excess card from the edges.  I glued it in place in the centre of my background.  I cut a Refined Rectangle in white card and added it to the middle of my frame with mounting foam.  I stamped my sentiment (CR. Exp. Amazing Sentiments  clear stamp set) in black and covered it with a sticky adhesive sheet.  Peeling back the paper, I coated it with Diamond Sprinkles and die cut it with the oval from the centre of the Classic Adorned Rectangle die set.  I matted it with a black mat and attached it in the centre of my frame.  I cut several of the Cornflowers and layered them up and put a small black Dazzler in the centres then attached them around my sentiment.  I completed the card with a pierced white mat, a thin black mat and a final white mat.  The finished dimensions are 7" x  8 1/2" in size.

I still have shows on Create and Craft today scheduled at 11am, 2pm and 7pm.  I would just love it if you could join me!  All for now, Sue x
