Hello bloggers! I tried a new combnation of pixie powders for the background on this card. I used
Golden Mint, Sun Yellow and Mango Blaze pixie powders. I really liked the fresh, bright colour it gave me, so different from any I have done before! I cut the
Butterfly Frame in both white and black and used it as a shadow, then glued it over the pixied background. I cut the centre square out of the die into a leftover piece of the pixied card and glued it in the centre of the frame. Using the
Wishing You Well sentiment, I cut it in both white and black, shadpwed it and glued it in the middle. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 6 1/2" in size. All for now. Sue x

ReplyDeleteWhat a great combination of Pixie Powders used together to make this fabulous card.
The Butterfly Frame has always been a favourite die of mine and have used it many times with my own colour combinations and it always looks so different each time.
