Hello crafters! I started with a piece of cobalt blue card and used the
Snowflake Flurry mask on top of it. I used
Silver Luna Paste through it, then set it aside to dry thoroughly. I used the
Clipped Corner Rectangles and made a multi-layered white frame to go over the background. I cut the
Snowflake Bauble and the
Sparkle Bauble out of white card. I cut the backing pieces for both with a sticky adhesive sheet added, then attached them and sprinkled
Silver Polished silk glitter on them. I added them to the inside of the frame and used the beaded drops on both. I made two poinsettias from
vellum as accents and added some white
Evergreen Branches to them. I cut the
Season's Greetings shadowed sentiment in silver and added them to a white shadow backing. I attached them in opposite corners of the card on the frame. The card was completed with white and cobalt blue mats and layers. The finished simensiona are 7" x 8 1/4" in size.
I do have to make a huge apology as I completely forgot to do the drawings yesterday for the winners from the blog launch (first time ever!) I would do it now, but its actually my bedtime as I remembered and posted this! As promised, they will be up tomorrow afternoon! Thanks for you patience on this (although I am completely surprised that I didn't get a single email asking what happened to them!! LOL) All for now, Sue x
Lol don't you worry lol we must have forgotten too, hope you slept well anyway 😴
ReplyDeleteThis is a really pretty festive sample, I'm sure I have those baubles on order plus a couple more as a pick me up treat.
Thinking of our Tina Eldridge today as she goes in for her knee replacement.
Love to all that visit, stay safe and well xx
Morning Sue.
ReplyDeleteA beautiful card thank you.
I did wonder about the draw,I thank you
for you kindness in doing a draw I would'nt
dream of reminding you, that is like asking for
a freebie, I am so grateful that you do the draw, thank you.
Take care and have fun Kitty.
Morning Sue, thank you for the chance to win a die set, it would be very rude given your generosity to remind you, so I would not even think of doing it. Love today's festive card, the cobalt blue is a lovely shade. Take care and stay safe everyone. Bx
ReplyDeleteMorning Sue and all Wilsonettes, another gorgeous blue cobalt and white and silver card today, it really is amazing, I remember you showing me how to use the paste at Ally Pally, so I had to get some, it is a fantastic product, oh what laughs we had at those shows Sue, that is of course if we could get near you ha ha.
ReplyDeleteNo worries about the draw, we know you have a lot on your mind and being a day or so late will make it all the more special. Good Luck everyone.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx

Good morning Sue,
ReplyDeleteA truly beautiful card with your beautiful baubles. No worries about the draw I would never dream of reminding you as you are so generous. Yvonne xx
A lovely card! Like others I thought there must be a reason for the draw not to have happened, everyone is so busy at this time of year, and you must be a lot busier than most people, as well as one of the most generous Sue!
ReplyDeleteStunning post today and love the baubles (have them in my collection along with previous versions)...Had a chuckle that you forgot the draw but easy done when you are so busy and it makes me think you are human as you are always so busy designing and creating beautiful things lol....
ReplyDeleteHi Sue. What a lovely card today. I do particularly like the effect that you get with the luna paste. In real life it almost looks like glass!

ReplyDeleteMorning Sue - my only concern about the missing drawings was that you were ok - I am relieved to hear that you are fine. Another stunning card today - think I might have to invest in some lunar paste, it looks so effective! Colleen x

Hi Sue, running late again but I had to say how much I like this card. Blue and silver are a perfect combination and the vellum poinsettias are the icing on the cake.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad it is not just me who forgets things but I think we all have times when other things just get in the way and our brains are full :-)
I see that the winners have now been published and I send congratulations to them all.
