Card Giveaway!

Hello crafters!  I thought it was about time that I did a card giveaway,  Since this one is so much prettier in real life than my photography skills show, I thought it would be the perfect card to use for it!  I started by cutting a decorative edge into the sides of a piece of coconut white card using the border from the Treat Yourself Cupcake set.  Next, I made a large piece of Pixie Powder background using the Midnight Blue, Peacock Green and Violet Purple powders.  From that piece, I cut two strips to go behind my borders, an oval and a piece to fit behind the oval cut out area.  In the middle of the two borders, I used the decorative die from the Nina die to cut into the card.  I cut a wide oval frame from white card using the Double Pierced Noble Ovals and added mounting foam to the back.  I placed that over the Nina die cut area.  I used the thinner frame cut from the Pixie powder background on top of it.  I cut a circular frame out of the Double Pierced Noble Circles and framed my stamp-ed sentiment and seated it over the Nina die cut. For a floral element, I used the Starlight Daisy shape dies and made 3D flowers.  I glittered them with Iced Snow and seated them on a white satin bow and accented them with white Curly Fern die cuts.  I added a strip of white pearls to either side of the borders to finish it off.  White on white mats were used to complete the card.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x  8" in size.  Leave a comment on this post to be entered into the drawing to win it.  I will announce the winner on Saturday's blog post.  All for now, Sue x
