Sending Lots Of Happiness
Hello there my crafty friends! I decided to try a couple of new colours together for today's background. I used Into The Blues and Molten Gold Pixie Sparkles. I covered it with a piece of cling film and let it dry overnight. Next I cut the Moonflower Floral Panel in both antique gold card and black card. I used the black die cut to shadow behind the gold one. I cut a white frame from the Button Flower Floral Panel die set and glued Moonflower panel into the frame. I cut a butterfly out of gold card from the Butterfly Delights die set and added it above the sentiment. I cut the Sending Lots Of Happiness sentiment in white and black, then shadowed it and glued it under the butterfly. The card was completed with white and gold mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 8" x 8" in size. All for now, Sue x

Hi Sue.
At first I wasn't sure, usually your inspiration jumps out at me as soon as it loads, but sometimes it stares at me, the more I look the more I start to smile and the more it sings to me, I really love using clingfilm on pixie powder backgrounds, I think it was the colour of the panel, it looks darker than my vintage gold cardstock,. I should know by now that colours don't show true on photos lol.
Wherever you are I send love to all xx
Wonderful card Sue xx
Morning Sue.

Hi Sue. I love the background today. It looks almost like a natural stone. Normally, I would use silver with blue inks but I think that the gold looks stunning and shows off the panel element beautifully.

Hello Sue
I wasn't sure about the colours on the background at first but it is growing on me. Take care everyone x
Love the gold on the blue, I would have used
silver aswell, but it does glow!!
Stay safe,

Hello Sue, a beautiful card. Love the pixie background but like others have said, my instinct would have put silver with blue but I am liking the gold and blue

A great post - particularly love the background and would be good for any masculine cards whilst working equally as well like this. Love it...
The background has a look of old or worn denim i feel and i think it would be great for any denim themed cards x
Hi Sue
First of all I thought oh no but when I zoomed into it I think it really nice and dramatic.

Sue you are getting some beautiful backgrounds which gives
each card something different and extra special.
Thank you.
Morning Sue, what an absolutely amazing card, it really is that background that makes it so striking. Take care and stay safe everyone. Bx
Morning Sue Great card I love the colours of the background At first I didn't notice the butterfly it's almost camouflaged into the background I'm sure in real life the colourswould look stunning
Good morning Sue
I think this is one of the cards that you need to see in the flesh to see it’s real beauty! Not two colours I would have put together but it does work!

Morning Sue - love the colours you have used for the background - and the clingfilm technique is a new favourite of mine - it gives a real marbled appearance. Yes, this card is another winner! Thank you Sue - Colleen xx

Hi Sue, I really liked this card when you launched the panel dies so I was interested to see how you had created the background, it does have a look of polished marble to it. Love the colours and the simplicity of the card.

A very elegant and beautiful card. The background is fabulous! Hugs.
Wow, lovely card and a stunning background. I keep thinking I must get some pixie products but you do so many beautiful combinations I don't know where to start and the purse won't stretch to them all 😞. WakeyL
Hi Sue and everyone, I love the background on todays inspiration and think the gold and blue look stunning together. It has a lovely marbled look.
I've made a few Christmas cards with gold and blue, it always looks striking together. Pale blue is better with silver I think.
Hugs to all who need them

I love this background! And that slim line frame, what a lovely detail it has! Gorgeous card
Hi Sue
I love the golds and blues, Pixies always rule supreme, and the moonflower looks stunning. I haven't tries the cling film method yet, bit it's definitely on my to do list
