For You

Hi crafters!  I have really been enjoying our Cosmic Shimmer line recently and I pulled out the Gilding Polish to make this card.  I started with a piece of white card and randomly swiped Powder Blue and 
Blossom Gilding Polish across it.  I allowed it to dry well then embossed it with the Sunburst Frame embossing folder for texture.  I used the Double Stitched Squares and cut two thin frames out of white card.  I mounted the larger one in a diamond orientation, then mounted the smaller one across it in a square orientation.  Next I used the Decorative Squares die set and cut two smaller squares.  I mounted then in the same manner on top.  I stamped the For You sentiment in the smaller sqaure in black ink.  I cut several flowers out of a leftover bit of the background card using the Magnolia Corner die set flowers and assembled them and added them to the side of my sentiment.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimesnions are 7"  x  8 1/2" in size.  All for now, Sue x

  5. Hi Sue it was lovely to sit and watch you demo that gorgeous sample yesterday, you looked really well thanks goodness. The depths of design in these folders are absolutely amazing you wouldn't think it could change a plain piece of cardstock so much, this may sound really ludicrous but looking at the embossing reminds me of jelly/jello moulds lol can you see it? But the gilding polish is just so lush, my list now comprises of folders and numerous post of 'stuff' as well as dies, I'll never be lucky enough to reach the end. So I'll send love and virtual hugs to everyone today STAY SAFE KEEP SMILING KEEP CRAFTING 💖 xxx

    Good morning Sue,
    So sorry to have missed your demo yesterday. I will try to find it later though I'm not sure if you can do that on the PC.
    Today's card is so beautiful it's breath-taking. I have a Hospital appointment this morning and will have to be ready in an hour but couldn't wait to see what you had for us. I'm so glad I looked as I will be thinking of it while I'm sat waiting.
    I absolutely LOVE everything about this card and will bring it up again when I return.
    Have a great day and THANK YOU
    Marie P.

  21. Hi Sue and everyone, what a pretty card you've added today. I can see the jelly mould that Steph is talking about hehe. I'm loving the colours in that background though, so pretty.
    It was great to see you demoing yesterday, I missed the first show, so I will watch that one later. Great to see you looking well and your demo was the best, stunning and using my favourite dies from the Christmas launch too. Stay safe and well all hugs Donna x
