Hello crafters! I had a play with some of the newer colours of Pixie Sparkles here. I used the
Molten Gold and the Boulevard Lights Pixie Sparkles. I used the
Clipped Corner Rectangles to make a Multi-layered frame using black card as the base and Black Gloss card as the top layer. I added it with mounting foam over the background and trimmed away any excess card from underneath the frame. I cut two vases out of black gloss card from the
Elegant Arrangements set and the Beautiful Blossoms die sets. I added some stems to both cut from black card. I added the vases to the left inside the frame and used the
You Are The Best sentiment cut in white on the opposite side. I added the frame to a piece of white card then completed the card with white and black mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 6" x 8" in size.
There are still two unclaimed dies from the blog launch drawings. Please scroll down to check the list that was published on Tuesday and contact me if your name is on the list! All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very sombre card but still very nice thank you.
Take care and have fun Kitty.
Beautiful, really beautiful. This is going to sound really stupid (but it's still quite early) but it feels dark and sultry but it also feels like it holds a secret. That was my first thought this Saturday morning.
ReplyDeleteLove to all, be happy, be safe, be well xxx
DONNA. I was chuffed to bits to see you'd come home yesterday I've been really worried that my Debbie downer posts depressed a few blog sisters. I'm sorry to read you've been poorly and had to have surgery. Hope you start to feel more human soon. Lancs lassies stick together. All we need is our Muriel to return now.
DeleteWelcome home Donna xx
Good morning Sue
ReplyDeleteAlthough I love the concept I’m not sure of the colours they are too dark for me! Lol Steph you made me smile!

Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful card, but a bit on the dark side for me.

Morning Sue and all Wilsonettes, a lovely sample this morning, I think the photo doesn't do the background justice, love the vase and flowers.
ReplyDeleteOh Sue I found the die set, it was one from overseas that I purchased.
Stay safe, healthy and happy, hugs, June Smith xxx
Hi Sue
ReplyDeleteA nice card but a bit dark - I’m guessing the photo doesn’t do it justice.

Hello Sue, yes a bit dark but I feel this is quite elegant

Hello Sue
ReplyDeleteLike many others it is a bit dark. Steph holding a secret we have missed your comments.Take care everyone x
Morning Sue, a great and very modern card, suitable for someone that does not like fussy. Take care and stay safe everyone. Bx
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Sue. Ohhhh Sue I love this card. If ever there was a background for the men this is it. And the beautiful vases are lovely. In my minds eye ... And only my opinion ... It reminds me of a picture in a beautiful elegant reception area in a very posh hotel. I can see why it's not everyone cup of tea ... but ... I would love to be sitting in this reception area with a lovely cup of it. Thankyou Sue. Sending hugs 🤗 and best wishes to everyone who needs them today.
ReplyDeletePLEASE STAY SAFE 🙏 🙏 🙏

Hi Sue
ReplyDeleteThis is a very sombre card could possibly adapted for a man card.
Owlish Xx
ReplyDeleteYes, bit dark for me, but as Ann says it
would be great for male cards.
Stay safe,

A fab post today and perfect for those that do not necessarily want ultra feminine. Also easily adapted as a more masculine card. Love it....
ReplyDeleteHi Sue. What a lovely design but the colours are a bit too dark for me - sorry.

Hi Sue
ReplyDeleteGreat card. A little but dark but that’s probably the photo and I bet it’s fab in real life.
Love Helen xxx
Good morning Sue this is a stunning card. I love it. Take care. Hugs Jackie
ReplyDeleteAn elegant card, but as others have said rather dark. However in real life I’m sure that gold really stands out & makes the card sing. Thank you Sue.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic background colour way and card.This look would certainly work for all genders. WakeyL
ReplyDeleteGood morning Sue,
ReplyDeleteA bit dark but a elegant card. Yvonne xx
Hi Sue
ReplyDeleteLove the vases with the branches and the pixie background but the black frame gives a somber feel to the card
Love and hugs to everyone

Hi Sue, a very stylish card and I like it a lot even though I agree with others that it looks quite dark in the pictures I am sure IRL it is a lot brighter.
ReplyDeleteFrances
Although it looks a little dark I am sure it looks stunning, I really like the design of it!
ReplyDeleteNot sure about this card Sue. Will keep looking at it and hope that it grows on me. Sorry!! Crafty Hugs Pauline xx
ReplyDeleteI am sure in the flesh this card must be pretty, especially with the pixie sparkles....but on the photo it all looks rather dark....luv Ursula xxx
ReplyDeleteGood afternoon Sue, must agree with those who think it looks a bit dark in the photo, but it goes with how the world are feeling at the moment with what is going on in Ukraine, sad times. I am sure your card looks beautiful in real life. Love Jean xxx
ReplyDeleteQuite a different card Sue, very interesting colors!!!!
ReplyDeleteHi sue yes dark but beautifuL I love the vase’s and I do believe it would look lovely on my mantle peace is thank you sue Stay save my io June horrocks xxxxxxxx. We come home Donna. Love Steph and family xxxxx
ReplyDeleteHi Sue. This is a lovely card, but I think the background colours of Molten Gold and Boulevard Lights that you have used are a bit to dark for me. Other than that I love the rest of the card. Thank you. Take care Sue and everyone love Tres x x x
ReplyDeleteHi Sue - I love it! And the use of gloss and non-gloss to make a double frame is so effective. Must remember that one! Colleen xx
ReplyDeleteHi Sue A very different card today quite dark but still lovely I really like the background and the combination of glossy black and black card
ReplyDeleteA very striking card, and the Elegant Arrangements and Beautiful Blossoms dies complement the card perfectly. I like both of those die sets! Hugs.
ReplyDeleteHi Sue,
ReplyDeleteI too can see it’s not to everyone’s taste, but I do like the new pixie colours,

Hi Sue,
ReplyDeleteAn interesting colour scheme but sadly for me the flowers are lost against the background.

I lost my job few months back and there was no way to get income for my family, things was so tough and I couldn't get anything for my children, not until a met a recommendation on a page writing how Mr Bernie Wilfred helped a lady in getting a huge amount of profit every 6 working days on trading with his management on the cryptocurrency Market, to be honest I never believe it but I took the risk to take a loan of $1000. and I contacted him unbelievable and I was so happy I earn $12,500 in 6 working days, the most joy is that I can now take care of my family I don't know how to appreciate your good work Mr. Bernie Doran God will continue to bless you for being a life saver I have no way to appreciate you than to tell people about your good services.
