Good Sunday morning all! I thought I would wake you up with this ultra bright card! LOL I used
Mango Blaze, Golden Mint and Sun Yellow Pixie Powders on a piece of white card. I used the cutting die from the
Claire die set and cut an aperture in the centre. I used the
Quilted Pillow 3D embossing folder to add texture to the background. I cut a thin black frame using the outer most dies from the
Claire set and glued it around the edge of the aperture. I cut the
Claire die in black and added a white backing to it, then recessed it down into the aperture opening. I cut the centre from the
Eliza die in white and backed it in black and glued it to the centre. The
Wishing You Well sentiment was cut out of a leftover piece of the pixie powder card, then shadowed with a black die cut and glued to the centre of the card. I added two black strips to the edges for balance. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 1/2" x 7 3/4" in size. All for now. Sue x
Ok ok I'm awake Sue lol, up since 5am. It's lovely, if the background was a little lighter it'd remind me of the Florida keylime pie I couldn't get enough of back in 1989 lol. Apart from a citrus wake up call this is a pretty Sunday sample.
