If Friends Were Flowers
Hello there my crafty friends! I have another of the Slimline All In Ones to share with you today. I cut the If Friends Were Flowers in both white and black. I used the black die cut as a shadow behind the white one. Next I used Distress inks to colour the flowers. I used Fossilized Amber for the larger Flowers. I also added glue to the centres of the three big yellow flowers and sprinkled them with clear micro beads. I used Spun Sugar and Shaded Wisteria for the smaller flowers. I added some pale green to the leaves by using Bundled Sage distress ink. I added a white vellum backing to the die cut. The card was completed with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 5" x 9 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x
Beautiful card Sue xx
ReplyDeleteOh my word, you've given us some stunning samples over the past 10 months but this has to be up there with the outstanding samples I wish I could see for real. As for the sentiment my mornings are full of the perfume from all the flowers I've collected over 10 years of Particraft and a hugh thank you to JUNE HORROCKS for your beautiful card and kind thoughts.
