Thinking Of You
Good Sunday morning all! I started by coating a piece of card with the Midnight Sparkle Glitter Kiss and allowing it to dry thoroughly. Once dry, I embossed it with the Stripes embossing folder for texture. I made a multi-layered white frame using the Clipped Corner Rectangles and added it over the Glitter Kiss background with mounting foam. I cut two vases, both in white, one from the Elegant Arrangements die set and the other from the Beautiful Blossoms die set. I cut white pussy willows for the tall vase and cut the twiggy branches for the flat vase. I used the Thinking Of You Stacked sentiment cut in white and added it to the upper right corner of the frame. The card was completed with white mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6 3/4" x 8 1/2" in size. All for now, Sue x

Beautiful card Sue xx
ReplyDeleteMorning Sue.
ReplyDeleteA very elegant card thank you.
Take care and have fun Kitty.
Oh my word Sue I bet the effect is absolutely amazing in real life, the design is beautiful but glitter kiss has the most staggering but subtle sparkle I've ever seen from a glitter product, to have a full background of midnight shining out at you would certainly be something you couldn't stop looking at drawing you in, amazing .
ReplyDeleteHope everyone is as well and happy as they can be xxx
Muriel it's been a while since I've read your comments I really hope all is okay down under, we worry when a regular friend goes awol. Miss you keep well xx

Hi Sue. Another stunning card today. Although I am a fan of black, or almost black, in the background, some people are put off by it. I am sure though, that the background colour could be changed to appeal to a wider range of people.

Hi SUE
ReplyDeleteI love your card today but my husband hates me making black or almost black cards but saying this your card is very appealing to the eye.

Good Morning Sue. Ohhh I love this. I love all your work. But just sometimes I love some more than others ... And this is one of them ... I can get past the black on this one ... I love black ... And the glitter kiss is lovely. But with the vases and flowers you have used ... I would like a more calming colour like lavender or a lovely shade of mint. That's just my opinion Sue and I don't mean to take anything from your beautiful sample as I said I love it. Thankyou Sue.
ReplyDeleteSending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today.
