Hello bloggers! I started this sweet card by creating the background. I taped the
Basketweave stencil to a piece of white card. I used
Clear Texture Paste through the mask. While the mask wa till in place, I sprinkled
Teal Marine and Fuschia Rose Pixie Sparkles all over the mask. making sure to hit all the areas with the texture paste. I removed the mask and set the background aise to dry thoroughly. Next I cut three small square white frames using the
Cut Corner Squares. I added mounting foam to the backs of the frames then added a piece of white card o each of them. I added the squares vertically to the background. I used some of the flowers from the
Elegant Arrangements in the top and bottom frames and inked the flowers with
Spun Sugar ink. In the centre frame, I added the
Miss You sentiment cut in black. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 4 3/4" x 9 1/4" in size. All for now,
Stunning card Sue xx

Hi Sue and everyone a very delicate background and card today. I think I bought this stencil the other day at my local craft shop, not had chance to use it yet though. Lovely sentiment and very apt for the last couple of years.

Hi Sue. Love the idea of this background and I think if I was going to do something similar I may use lighter colours because I think that the flower panels are getting a bit lost against this rather busy background - sorry
