Many Thanks

Hi bloggers!  Not sure if the colours used here will show up true, but it is blush, taupe and milk card for a very soft almost vintage feel to it.  I started by adding a bit of texture to the background by embossing a piece of milk card using the Linen Texture embossing folder.  Next I cut four of the Pavo Gemini die using both cutting edges and the centre decorative die out of blush card.  I backed the with taupe card cut using just the two cutting edges.  I mounted them on foam for dimension and attached them to my embossed background to create a square frame.  I cut away the parts of the embossed background that showed outside of the frame and mounted entire piece on another milk card.  Next I used the centre die from the Porto die to cut two decorative pieces out of milk card.  I crisscrossed them and attached them in the centre of the frame.  I stamped my sentiment and cut it out with the Porto circle, highlighting it with Spun Sugar distress ink.  I cut a slightly larger circle out of taupe card to mat it with and placed them in the centre of the frame.  I completed the card by piercing a milk mat.  I followed that with a thin blush mat and a thin taupe mat and a final milk mat.  The finished dimensions are 8 1/4" x  8 1/4" in size.

On another note, I have noticed that we have hit our blog candy goal, but unfortunately that drawing will have to wait until I am back in the UK.  Sorry for the delay, but I will let you know when it can take place later on.   All for now, Sue x
