Hi there my crafty friends! Have you seen the new Aurora Flakes yet? They are like gilding flakes, but they have been dyed really lovely colours that you cannot get from regular gilding flakes! Here is one of my first plays with them. I started by covering a piece of coconut white card with a sticky adhesive sheet. I peeled the backing sheet off and added some of the Blue Ice Aurora Flakes to it. I used a piece of Rubit Scrubit to move the flakes around and cover the sticky sheet. I used the outer die from the Friendship All In One to cut the backing. Next I cut the Friendship die in white and glued it on top. I added pearls to the flowers and then cut a larger piece of white card to adhere it to. I cut two of the Magnolia Corners and glued them in opposite corners. I cut the flowers out of a small piece of extra sticky sheet, then glittered them with Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz and glued them in place on top of the flowers in the corners. I added the All In One in the centre with foam and used three pearls in the opposite corners. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finshed dimensions are 7" x 8" in size. All for now Sue x

A wonderful card Sue xx Hazel
Lovely card and very sparkly. x
Hi Sue and all that enjoy your daily piece of wonderful normality and beautiful inspiration. This is such a meaningful expression as I think many new friendships have been made during the past few months, I made a few Easter cards to put through a few doors so I think it's time for another for those like myself that still have to look at the world through glass for the for see able future, so yes, our friends are so special, and we soon find how much we need them with every text that asks 'if we need anything leaving on our doorstep '
This inspiration couldn't be anymore beautiful or anymore appropriate like all your gorgeous samples.
STAY SAFE KEEP CARING KEEP CRAFTING xxx ❤
Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, a beautiful sample using the new gilding and what a beautiful colour you have chosen to demonstrate it with. I must check out these new colours too.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

I really like the die cut sentiments that are more than a couple of words and I especially like this one. It fits with my favorite card to send just because I am thinking about them. Very pretty!

Lovely card SUE Are they like gilding flakes in that they are so light and floaty that they go everywhere 😀
I too will have to look out for these Aurora flakes. They make a lovely background to showcase this lovely sentiment. Hugs xxx Pauline

The Blue Ice Aurora Flakes are beautiful paired with white. This All in One die is one of my favorites. This is a beautiful card. Hugs.
This is a glitzy card design. I have not tried the Aurora Flakes yet. Maybe soon I can get some to try. Thank you for sharing your ideas and inspiring me. Hugs
Hello Sue, a stunning card, really need to get some Aurora Flakes when finances are back to normal. Bx
I don’t know whether it is the colour on my iPad but I am having difficulty reading the Words because of the background colour. However these new flakes sound interesting and worth a punt I think.
Teresa
gorgeous card!
Hi SUE
