Guess Who Thinks You're Special

Good Sunday morning all!  I am switching gears today and have used the Lustre Polishes for this beauty.  I started with a piece of card and swiped the Tantalising Teal, Apple Fizz and Violet Vibe Lustre polishes across the card and let it dry.  I embossed it with the Flourish Border Frame.  I cut a rectangle out of white card and glued it to the centre of the embossed frame.  I cut the Guess Who Thinks You're Special die twice out of black card and stacked them and glued them into the centre.  Using the extra flower die from the Magnolia Corner, I cut several flowers out of an extra piece of the lustre polish card.  I added the flowers in opposite corners around the sentiment.  I cut the Magnolia Corner in white and mnipped it apart to use as accents around the flowers.  The card was completed with white and black mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 7 1/4"  x  8 3/4" in size.  All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue

A great card. I love the magnolia corner and the colours of the opal polishes that you have used. Just lovely.

Love Helen xxx

Pawprintx4 said...

Very nice. I only have 2 Lustre Polishes which really don't go together (what was I thinking?). I need more but I think I veered off to Opal Polishes. I am going to get the Magnolia Corner die one of these days. Seems like its always sold out which shows how popular it is.
Have a great Sunday, everyone,

The Lustre Polishes that you combined on this design blend beautifully together.
Unfortunately, I do not have these three colors. Your 3D Flourish Border Frame is stunning done with the striping of these three Lushtre colors before embossing this frame. Your sentiments fits perfectly in the center of this embossed frame. And I like the contrast of the black with the Lustre Polished flowers and the white card. Inspiring. Thank you.

Eunice Astle said...

Wonderful card Sue, love how the luster polishes came out. When you emboss the background is there any way to mitigate the cracking of the Luster Polish?

Rose in Chester said...

Wow, what a card to receive - it must make the person feel special.

We can never be without POLISHES , whichever they are. And your have shown this, Sue,

Hugs
Rose

Princess Pixie! said...

Hi Sue
Those colours are so rich and luscious and this card is a real beauty. That EF folder is stunning. Love the sentiment- right back at you Sue x
I don’t have any of the Lustre Polishes. Every time I see one of your amazing cards made using the polishes I really feel that my life is not complete without them! The problem is I want them all. I have tried choosing just a couple from the lovely array of colours but that is an impossible task. As I said - want them all.
Take care and stay safe everyone x
