Wednesday Weekly Card Giveaway

 Hello there my crafty friends!  If you would like to be entered into the drawing to win this demo card from my Feb. shows, just leave me a comment on the post.  The winner for this card and the previous two weeks will be announced on Saturday's blog post.  I started by embossing a piece of coconut white card with the Crosstitch Pinpoint Embossing folder for some textural goodness.  Next I cut the Scandinavian Background in white and left a wide border on it.  I cut it in half through the centre and trimmed it down to make a smaller squarish piece.  I taped it back together and added mounting foam to the back and adhered it to my embossed background.  I cut a Scandinavian border in white and glued it across the join line.  Next I cut the Oslo die in white and used Shaded Lilac distress ink while it was still in the die.  I did two of these exactly the same way and off set them.  I added them to the centre of the card.  I stamped my sentiment in black and cut it out with the Copenhagen die set.  I inked it with Shaded Lilac also and mounted it in the centre of the card.  I added three small flatback white pearls below the sentiment.  I tied a double bow from the white satin ribbon and added a flower made from the Camellia Complete petal die set.  I edged the tips of the flower with Shaded Lilac and then "sugared" it with Iced Snow.  I added it to my bow and placed several pieces of Mosaic leaves around it.  I finished the card with my usual pierced white mat, then I inked the edge of another piece of card with Shaded Lilac to create a thin matching mat and a final white mat finished it off.  The finished dimensions are 7 3/4" x  7 3/4" in size.  All for now, Sue x
