To A Dear Friend
Hi bloggers! I thought I would show off one of the new Stampcut dies today. I started by embossing a piece of white card with the Stripes embossing folder. Next I cut the Cut Corner Rectangles to make a wide white frame. I cut another one in black and cut it in half, then used it as an outer edge shadow. I added mounting foam to the back of the frame then added it to the embossed background. I stamped and cut out two of the Wild Rose Cluster Stampcut die. I decided to not go red or pink and instead tried a rusty sort of colour. I used Distress Markers to colour the die cuts, then added foam to them and mounted them on the sides of the frame. I cut the To A Dear Friend sentiment in black and glued it inside the frame. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue.

Hi sue, you really stole our hearts and relit memories yesterday with your magnificent elephant/irrelephant, there are so many tv documentaries about the plight of these magical sensitive clever and loving animals the most recent documentary is of singer Cher rescuing the loneliest elephant in the world from India, so yesterday's sample had a place in all our hearts.
ReplyDeleteToday another Sue Wilson beauty that no designer could ever better, that gorgeous plain folder, your stunning Stampcuts that I really must add to my collection some day, I don't think you really appreciate how much we look forward to Particraft going live each day its either the best start to our morning or a great lunchtime break or maybe a lovely end to some blog family members day, either way we love Particraft xx

Hello Sue such a pretty card with a wonderful sentiment. The embossing folder makes a really useful background for many cards, the flowers and colouring are lovely too xx
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Sue. How lovely is this card. And just look how many lovely dies have been used to create it ... But it still doesn't look over crowded ... that's what I call genious thinking.
ReplyDeleteSTEPHANIE ... Just reading your post ... have I missed something ... Is partycraft going live each day ... or is this wishful thinking.
Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs and best wishes to everyone who needs them today..
PLEASE KEEP STAYING SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏
Kind regards Ann Toppcards Leeds
Sorry if I confused you Ann, by going live I meant Sue's daily post scheduled to upload at 6am GMT every morning. I know very little about blog's so I could be totally wrong but I know that I dont receive Sue's new daily blog post until 6am every day, so that's when it 'goes live' in my little world lol xx
DeleteHello Sue and all
ReplyDeleteJust gorgeous! The embossing folder has missed me in the past but I think it needs a home in my craft corner. Love the flowers too snd your “unusual” colours are perfect

I like the white background and frames with the added texture. The flowers add a big pop of color and the eye is drawn to the dark sentiment. Wonderful!
