Hi bloggers! The
City Skyline is the subject for today's card. I used
black gloss card to cut the skyline pieces. I decided to make rows rather than layering them on top of each other just to show another look for it. I added them on to the circle cut in white with a sparkly moon. Next I cut continuous strips of them and layered them in the same manner across a piece of white card that was covered with a sticky adhesive sheet. I placed them all down then coated the exposed adhesive with
Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz and added the circle to the top. I used the
Miss You mini expression in the upper corner. White and black gloss mats and layers were used to complete the card. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 7 1/4" in size.
Don't forget to check back later thus afternoon as I will be doing the drawings and posting the winners for the blog launch die release!! All for now, Sue x

Good Morning Sue. This is another stunning card that I would make for my lovely Niece. She is New York mad ..... and did a 4 day visit there last year.

Love the City Skyline die; so versatile :))
An interesting card Sue but not really my style
What a great card, you are clever.
First thing that popped into my head was it would be a lovely card for offspring that have flown the
nest and moved into the big city.

Very dramatic and effective. Am thinking about getting this die, after seeing your samples with it.
I do not know why but most of the pictures will not come up and the rest are only partial pictures. However I think this is one that you made on Hochanda, or was in the samples, as I am sure i have seen it before. A nice card from the bits I can see and what I remember lol.
Hugs Helen xx
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, wow this is an amazing card, really elegant and what a joy it would be to someone to receive it. Brilliant.

Hi Sue. This is a fabulous card using your fabulous City Skyline dies !!! I love the modern, sophisticated design you have made using black gloss card and white glitter which I think really makes a bold statement !!! I love how you have used part of the design as the background and then raised up the circle die with the central part of the design. I think this makes such a lovely effect on your card. It is stunning !!! Thank you Sue. Lots of love from Tres X X X
