A Joyful Christmas
Hello there my crafty friends! I used the Round Corner Squares and made a white frame. I added mounting foam to the back of it. Next I cut the Poinsettia Scalloped Border die twice in white. I added one of the borders to the inside top of the frame and the other to the inside bottom of the frame with the mounting foam holding them both in place. I attached the frame with the two borders to another piece of white card. I cut the Poinsettias from the set out of red card two times. I nipped them apart and used trios in opposite corners. I added three small pearls to the centres of each of the flowers. I cut the Joyful Christmas sentiment out of red card, shadowed it in black and glued it to the centre of the frame. The card was completed with white and red mats and layers. The finished dimensions are 7 1/4" x 7 1/4" in size. All for now, Sue x
Morning Sue I do love the border. It reminds me of my grandma's beautiful cakes which she used to ice. So delicate and lacey. Beautiful card. Crafty Hugs,Pauline x
