Thinking Of You

Good Sunday morning all!  Just a quick note before I give you the card rundown, but the winners of the die drawings were posted late yesterday afternoon, so if you haven't checked the list, please scroll down to the post below this one to see if your name is among the winners.  There are still over a dozen that haven't been claimed yet!  For today's card, I started with a piece of coconut white card as my background.  I cut two of the Hexagonal Borders in white and cut them in half to make them a bit thinner.  I added a strip of wisteria card behind the centre section and glued them to the edges of the card.  For the focal element, I cut the Eliza die in wisteria card.  I cut just the backing in Iris card then offset it behind the Eliza die cut.  I cut the Lottie die in white and cut it in half and added the pieces to the top and bottom edge of the focal element.  I cut the Thinking of You sentiment in both Iris and black card and shadowed it, then seated it on a white circle in the centre of the card.  White, wisteria and Iris mats and layers were used to complete the card.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/2" x 8 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x

Morning Sue. A really pretty sample to start the day with. The border looks so delicate and the main focal point reminds me of the Spiro-graph I use to play with in my bedroom and spend hours colouring in all the tiny patterns, and of course little Lottie playing her part there too, she's such a lovely versatile little die. Hope your Sunday is a funday xxx

Beautiful wisteria and white card today showing how beautifully your dies “get along” together. The octagonal border has become a real favourite too.
Thank you again for an amazing release
