You're Wonderful

Good Sunday morning all!  I started this card with a piece of black card and I used the Lilac Rose Opal Polish lightly across it.  I allowed a bit of the black to show through to give it some depth.  Next I used the Quilted Heart embossing folder on it to add texture.  I cut the Vanessa die in white and added it with foam to the top of the card.  I used the Double Stitched Ovals and made a small white frame.  I stamped my sentiment then coveered it with a small piece of sticky adhesive sheet.  I peeled the backing off and attached the frame over it, then sprinkled Frosted Sparkle Glitterbitz over the remaining exposed adhesive.  I added it with foam to the centre of the die.  Next I cut the Striped Swirl Edger border die in white and glued it across the lower portion of the card.  I cut a strip of double pearls in half and attached them along the edge of the border as an accent.  I used the Petite Butterfly set and cut a small butterfly out of a leftover piece of the background.  I added pearls to the body of the buttefly then glued it the the centre frame.  The card was completed with white mats and layers.  The finished dimensions are 6 3/4"  x  7 1/4" in size.  All for now, Sue x

  1. Happy Sunday Sue. I say this because today's inspiration is almost a reminder of samples past all that's missing is your big signature bow and stick pins, but like all the inspiration you share with us it has its own beauty, and it really is a 'happy Sunday'

  27. Wonderful card. I had to look to see if I had Vanessa and sadly I don't...have two others beginning with "V". I love opal polish...the best of the polishes to me.
    Hope everyone is well and enjoying their Sunday.
