Hello there my crafty friends! I started this card by embossing the background with the 3
D Stylized Poinsettia embossing folder. Next I cut the
Bauble Background out of white card and gold mirror card. I offset the gold behind the white die cut. I cut the
Bauble Background one more time out of Antique Gold card. I cut the centre strip in Gold Mirror card and glued it behind, then used the
Bauble Edgers to cut away the sides. I glued it on top of the original background. Using the
Poinsettia Stem die set, I cut two antique gold flowers and glued the outline on top that was cut out of mirror card. I attached them to the lower left corner of the background and added white leaves as accents. I cut the
Believe text in Antique Gold with a gold mirror card shadow and glued it to the bottom of the card. The card was completed with white, gold mirror card and Antique Gold card mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7" x 8 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue.

Hi Sue a new week begins with new inspiration and this is gorgeous. I love the effects of shadowing but do you hold your breath like there's no tomorrow hoping and praying that the top layer doesn't slip from your fingers just as you're hovering above the bottom layer, phew, I've had that happen a time or two but you do it so perfectly with a stunning end results.
