Best Wishes

 Hi bloggers!  Yes, it is Thursday and there is normally a video card here each week.  However, from time to time, we need to adjust the video schedule as we either get too far ahead or too far behind!  The goal is to not run out of videos at all so for a few weeks going forward the videos will drop down to twice a week instead of three a week.  It will actually be on Thurs and Sat., but it was my mistake this week by posting the video on Tuesday!  I am definitely a creature of habit!  Today's card is one of those sort of cards that I love to do as they are really quick and easy, but are really pretty too!  I started by covering a piece of black card with a sticky adhesive sheet.  I cut two of the New Zealand Noble Borders in black, peeled the backing off of the sticky sheet and laid them down so they were offset with a small gap between them.  Next I used Summer Meadow gilding flakes and rubbed the into all the exposed adhesive areas.  I refined them with a piece of Rubit Scrubit pad, removing any excess flake, then trimmed the panel, taking off the excess border edges.  I wrapped a piece of white seam binding around it vertically, then added a messy bow.  I made a flower out of the Sweetheart Flowers and added a gold paint pen to the edges.  I seated the flower on the bow and added Lace Edges Leaves in both white and black as accents. I stamped my sentiment and cut it with the Pierced Flags die set, then matted it with a slightly larger one cut in black.  I used the same gold paint pen around the edge then tucked the end under the floral element.  I added my usual paper pierced mat and layers to complete the card.   The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x  9" in size. All for now, Sue x
