Hi crafters! Today's card is pretty simple but very striking. I am hoping that you will think it is a good enough card for a Wednesday card giveaway offering! I started by cutting the
Ray Of light Background die in Straw Yellow. I backed it with
Custard yellow card. Next I cut the
City Skyline die out of
black gloss card. I cut the two largest city dies and layered them across the card. Next I used the
Double Stitched Rectangles Set B to create a multi -layered frame in white. I added it with foam over the background. I cut the
Hello Mini Expression die in black gloss card and added it at the top of the frame. White and black mats and layers were added to complete the card. The finished dimensions are 7" x 8 1/4" in size. Leave a comment to be entered into the drawing to win this card. The winner will be announced on Saturday's blog post. All for now, Sue x

Good morning Sue,
A fantastic card today as I love the city skyline I am thinking that these would be lovely framed. Possibly with a pinkish & blue background you could have a set of 3 beautiful frames for a wall. Now you have got me thinking. Yvonne xx

Hi Sue, a lovely card that I think would be great to send to a friend in another city just to say hello. I like Yvonne H's idea of a triptych with different coloured backgrounds. So many of your cards would make beautiful pictures.
